All biodiversity hotspots put together cover about how much percent of the earth's land area ?

The Earth's surface has a negative surface charge density of 10^(-9)C//m^2 . The potential difference of 400kV between the top of the atmosphere and the surface, results (due to low conductivity of the lower atmosphere) in a current of only 1800 A over the entire globe. If there is no mechanism of sustaining atmospheric electric field, how much time (roughly) would be required to neutralise the Earth’s surface?
