What is the earths electrical field?

0

Geophysicists have known for a long time that the surface of the earth has a steady supply of electrons. This unlimited supply is continually replenished by thousands of lightning strikes per minute somewhere on the planet. Electrons are immediately dispersed across the surface of the planet – many are eventually lost into the atmosphere. The whole system is known as the “global electrical circuit.” It is estimated that if all thunderstorm activity on earth ceased, electrons would cease to flow on the earth within one hour.
