The Earth's magnetic field does not cause devastation. Disasters are caused by geologic forces, atmospheric forces, human acitivity and interactions between these. The magnetic field does not play a role. The magnetic field of Earth is the result of convection in the outer core of the planet, which is composed of molten iron and nickel, coupled with the Earth's rotation.
