How do the Earth's dynamic core trigger tectonic shifts?

Imagine digging into Earth's core—a furnace of molten iron under immense pressure that generates our planet's magnetic field. This molten core drives the mantle, shaping continents through tectonic shifts and causing ice ages. Human-caused climate change now threatens Antarctica's ice, with rising sea levels potentially redrawing civilization's map.
Ep 1:
Fire, Ice, and the Shifting Crust
Beneath our feet, a molten engine drives tectonic plates and magnetic shields—but it's the crushing weight of polar ice that could decide which coastal cities survive the coming flood.
Ep 2:
The Sleeping Giant of West Antarctica
Deep in Antarctica, mysterious rivers of ice called ice streams reveal a marine ice sheet with a history of sudden collapse—and unsettling evidence it could happen again.
