Well I don't know much but, I do know about super volcanoes and I know that Yellowstone is the biggest in the world....I also know it usually erupts every 200,000 years....Well it hasn't erupted in 264,000 years so it's kind of scary....If all the chambers in the volcano would erupt it would block the sun from the world for over 7 years which means there would be a nuclear winter and every crop every animal and people would perish not all but, most not to mention how many would die from the lava, then the millions that would die from the ash that would also wipe out alot of living creatures in the waters that would be polluted...Could you imagine something so loud that when it explodes the WHOLE WORLD HEARS IT....pretty scary stuff just hope it ain't in my lifetime but, that's when I guesstimate the world could come to an end

Despite the grim and repeated predictions of some of its more dour and pessimistic members, the human race will continue well into the foreseeable future, and likely quite a ways into the unforseeable future.
Over the eons civilizations rise and fall all the time, and calamities befall the Earth, but mankind marches on. Global warming sure won't be our end, even the worst-case scenarios don't predict more than some rough times and readjustments for humans. An asteroid could do the job, but only if it hits sometime in the next century or so before we develop the technology to deflect it, and the odds of that are nearly zero. A global pandemic couldn't extinct us either, as we are too genetically diverse, too geographically spread out, and pretty clever at fighting back. And someone's version of religious rapture? Not even worth considering.
There will eventually come a time when humans no longer walk the Earth. I am quite confident though that that will be not because we've gone extinct, but because we've evolved into a higher form. When this will be is a bit hard to say.
If we continue evolving naturally, it will be a few hundred thousand years. But we hold within our grasp the ability to control and greatly accelerate our species' own evolution. There are some wicked things in the pipeline in biotechnology, advances that could cure most diseases and radically extend our lifetimes. There are also a few forward-thinkers among us who are doing research on the next stage of human evolution, the posthuman. Such an entity will almost certainly be non-biological; meat-bodies just are too fragile and maintenance-intensive to last much more than 1-2 centuries. The posthuman will be vastly smarter, wiser, and rational than the average human today, and will take for granted things we can't even imagine today, just as no king from the past could imagine movies or the Internet. When the human race will become posthuman is open for debate, but most seem to peg it at anywhere from a few decades to centuries. But at least among futurists, the consensus is that eventually, it will happen.
End of the world? For humanity, the world is just getting started!

I figure that the human body is an entrapment for the soul/human consciousness to have a chance to learn things and that's why reincarnation happens. So really, if we don't have an earth for our bodies to dwell, we'll still be floatin' around somewhere... lol... maybe by that time we'll all have acheived our multi-lifetime goals and join the "godhead". I figure it's got to be a few more centuries away. Even if we become an endangered species there'll probably still be a few of us still hanging around though.

Humans are survivors, if the world would be inhospitable, we would simply move to another planet. Maby the moon, the first astronaut who step on the moon saw massive structures before him. It's been 50 years then, why have we not been to the moon lately, because there is already super bases there. We are not yet capable to take over those bases. But it belongs to someone.

Global warming is the first threat to us, second possible threat is if a meteor hits..and the third threat and a very possible threat to us is the Robots, the time is not far when we will have robots in our houses...Once they get the ability to think and learn from their mistakes...and also when the get to learn about survival... Then it will be very dangerous...Let the time pass & u'll know wot i mean :)

while we hear and study and notice continuously a pair of undertaking, our minds are possessed by capacity of the appropriate spirits and not in any respect quits so actual. the sensation won't circulate till another theory replace it. people could desire to understand that their concepts are powerful. while thousands and thousands of persons assume that there will be a disaster, thousands and thousands of spirits artwork to make it genuine. for this reason people could desire to continuously think of sturdy. they shouldn't supply room to unfavorable concepts at any situations. the international won't end. yet while people proceed to bask in conflict, the destruction might develop into inevitable.

Humans will end up in space. They will eventually evolve into a form or forms that are fit for life out there.

God I hope it happens soon. It'll sure beat everyone living in a state of perpetual fear (of cancer, of global warming, of aliens, of everything). At the rate we're going, we'd all worry ourselves to death.
Good riddance to bad rubbish. May meerkats and giraffes be the ones that take over the world once we're gone.

to answer your question, I want to share a couple of words from the bible with you. It says in proverbes 2: 22 that "As regards for the wicked they will be cut off from the very earth and as for the treacherous, they will be torn away from it." and also, in john2:17 that "Furthermore, the world is passing away and so is its desire, but he that does the will of god remains foever." this shows that the only things that will be going out of existance are wickedness and the doers of wickedness, but everyone else plus the earth will continue to exist infinitely. moreover, god riginally made the earth to exist forever. psalms 104:5 says "He has founded the earth upon its established places: it will not be made to totter to time indefinite or forever". I hope this helps.

Right now, you can evolve yourself to the point of energy. You can shed your physical body and exist as Pure Being. This takes much time, yet no time at all, no mastery, yet all mastery. Understand yourself and enlightenment Is. :)
