What would happen to modern technology if the magnetic poles "flipped"

History has shown that the Earth's magnetic poles have switched over past history.  How would a modern switch affect such technology as electrical generation, electric motors, and all things magnetic including Compasses and GPS.

Global warming and human beings

Probably is a blind shot, but I would like to ask if somebody has calculated the impact in global warming of the direct heat. I am thinking for example in the human population (almost 7 billion with a constant  average temperature of 36.5 º C). And not only that, but the average temperature of all the cattle in the world kept by humans, (billions of animals that otherwise wouldn´t exist). Also we could think in the heat from fires (both wildfires and the small ones) and the heat that escapes from our homes, vehicules or industries.

Why is it important to properly vent a tank car before emptying it?

Why would this perfectly good tank car be sacrificed to make a point about proper procedures?

In this video, you see it collapse on camera.

Will anyone venture an estimate of the forces involved?

How fast could a Blue whale swim?

Being the heaviest organism on the planet (ignoring anything that photosynthesises or any ridiculously big fungi), baring in mind it lives in water, a blue whale is a huge lump of a mammal and probably has the capacity to reach some speed if given a chance and could probably cause great distress to krill populations if it where to waste more energy painting on go faster stripes. What's the fastest a blue whale has ever been recorded? It has probably never felt the need to outrun a predator or to leap on unsuspecting krill, and isn't really built for speed and has never seen the point in chasing after...anything at all...except krill...and maybe to out compete males if it itself is a male. Theoretically how fast could a blue whale swim if it let it's metaphorical hair down?
