Tentative upvote because I enjoy the concept, but I really wish there was more here.
As a reader, I'm left with a ton of questions and no answers. How did the Foundation discover that neural activity anomalously affects magnetic north? Do neurons only affect magnetic north, or is the magnetic south affected by them equally opposite as well? What effects would an immediate reversal of Earth's magnetic poles have? What does "Operation Mindful Sustainability" entail? Obviously such a document exists in-universe, so why don't we get to see even a heavily redacted version of it?
While writing this, I'm finding myself growing more and more frustrated with the sheer lack of substance here. Enough so that I may just reverse my +1 to a -1, at least unless this thing gets a serious content drop.
