As we get closer to 2012, investors are not taking chances on what may or may not happen as predicted by astronomers and scientists. A large number of investors including the U.S. government are investing in underground shelters, should an event of catastrophic nature happen. Scientists have predicted that we could face one of the most powerful geomagnetic storms ever.
On September 1, 1859, the Sun erupted again, even more furiously. According to scientists' reconstructions, the second Carrington CME was dozens of times more powerful than average, weighing in at about 10 billion tons and 10 trillion trillion watts (trillions of times more than the sum total of all electrical, mechanical, combustible, muscular, animal, and plant energy than has been produced or consumed in the history of the planet). Traveling at about 5 million miles per hour, it was also one of the fastest ever recorded.
When CMEs (Coronal Mass Ejections) launch, they create a shockwave that slaps the solar wind, a sphere of charged particles, mostly protons. This impact causes what is known as an SEP (solar energetic particle) event, which accelerates everything in its path exponentially; most of these supercharged particles take an hour or less to reach the Earth's atmosphere, where they fuse nitrogen and oxygen atoms to create nitrates, which eventually settle as dust onto the poles.
Were we hit today by a geomagnetic storm of equivalent strength to the Carrington event, our civilization could well be plunged into chaos. This is not an exaggeration. Rather, it is the consensus of those who presented at the National Academy of Sciences' report Severe Space Weather Events: Understanding Societal and Economic Impacts, published in December 2008. The report's executive summary says:
Because of the interconnectedness of critical infrastructures in modern society, the impacts of severe space weather events can go beyond disruption of existing technical systems and lead to short-term as well as to long-term collateral socioeconomic disruptions. Electric power is modern society's cornerstone technology, the technology on which virtually all other infrastructures and services depend...Collateral effects of a longer-term outage [such as would almost certainly result from a Carrington-scale space weather event] would likely include, for example, disruption of the transportation, communication, banking, and finance systems, and government services; the breakdown of the distribution of potable water owing to pump failure and the loss of perishable foods and medications because of lack of refrigeration. The resulting loss of services for a significant period of time in even one region of the country could affect the entire nation and have international impact as well.
Contributors from NASA, NOAA (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration), the Smithsonian Institution, the United States Air Force, a number of major universities, and advanced technology corporations gave evidence that a contemporary Carrington-scale event would lead to deep and widespread social disruption. Basic to this contention are the enormous changes to the United States' infrastructure over the past century and a half. Modern society is utterly dependent on electricity. The electrical system is the master system upon which all others depend. And it is vulnerable to historically large space weather events.
"Emergency services would be strained, and command and control might be lost," concludes the committee of National Academy of Sciences researchers, chaired by Daniel Baker, director of LASP, the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics, at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
Scientists have also noticed a migration in the poles and some go as far as to predict we could see a complete shift of the poles, where the North and South poles switch places. Should something like that occur, the entire map of the world would change, because earthquakes and volcanic eruptions would occur, tsunamis and tidal waves as high as five miles high would sweep the land, the power grid would shut down, and water would become scarce because it requires electricity to be pumped from the plants to its final destination.
It is predicted that in 2012, there will be solar flares that will interfere with the earth's magnetic field. . The Earth’s magnetic field, our primary defense against harmful solar radiation, has begun to shrink. Russian geophysicists believe that the Solar System has entered an interstellar energy cloud. This cloud is energizing and destabilizing the Sun and all the planets’ atmospheres. According to scientist Lawrence Joseph, The first cosmic croissant of the Carrington event hit Earth the next day, August 28, 1859, causing some of the most beautiful auroras ever seen. The northern lights don't normally extend down to Havana, Cuba, but this time they did, making the sky there appear as though it were stained with blood and on fire.

Nobody knows how catastrophic these events would be come 2012, but one thing we know for sure is that the government is racing to complete hundreds of Deep Underground Military Bases (D.U.M.B.S) several miles beneath the earth's crust. So the question is, who will qualify for room in these bunkers? Answer, the elite, powerful politicians, people in the medical field and a select few people of reproductive age who can continue the species, should the majority of the population get wiped out.

The entire west and east coasts are obliterated
Plant life would be destroyed and animals too and it is suspicious that Bill Gates is funding a project in which all seed species in the world are being collected and stored 50 miles deep in an underground bunker in Norway. Now why would Bill Gates fund the collection of the seeds in the world? Another question is why won't the government warn people? The reason is because there would be massive panic. Remember hurricane Ike and Katrina in Louisiana and Houston how the freeways got clogged? In addition, there is just not enough room for everyone in the underground bunkers, so the rest of us who are left to fend for ourselves will have to develop Jason Bourne survival skills.

This is a subject the media is not allowed to touch. A lot of media elites have been promised rooms in these bunkers should a catastrophe occur. In exchange, media moguls advise their staff to keep mum about the topic, and ridicule anyone who raises it. The Wall Street Journal has a different spin on it here.
The majority of the population (90 percent) of the United States lives within 20 miles from the coast, so it is easy to see how 90 percent of the population can be wiped out, and the government would need people of breeding age to continue our civilization. As a journalist, I can only say, with all the secrecy and preparations being made by the government and elites, something's up.
