"At present, the overall geomagnetic field is becoming weaker; the
present strong deterioration corresponds to a 10-15% decline over
the last 150 years and has accelerated in the past several years;
geomagnetic intensity has declined almost continuously from a
maximum 35% above the modern value achieved approximately 2,000
years ago."

Could there be any connection, as well as correlation, between the
reduced magnetic field and increased co2 or warming? Or could all be
caused by some other factor, perhaps galactic in origin?

A correlation is possible I suppose but one never knows. The Earth
is not a potted plant just coasting along through the cosmos without
something happening that might affect it. It bobs up and down
through the galactic plane for starters while many other stars do
too. Who knows what or when something odd might happen when it
encounters different alignments? Kismet
That was what I was thinking. But how could that affect co2 levels?
Killing off sea-algae maybe?

Hell, it could be anything. More warts, less fertility, mutations. Maybe
even warming/cooling. More/less co2. The Cosmos don't 'splain much
before it occurs.

Only environmentalists know everything.
