our big factories and gas guzzling SUV's are emitting enough greenhouse gases to eventually aid in mother nature's plan to rid the earth of inconsiderate, power-hungry humans...

or

endless waves of crime and mass killings due to war or those crazed individuals who believe that they should kill others because they were bullied in school

or

some other sad way that could have possibly been prevented

humans destroying themselves in some form or another is at the top of my list of causes

It could be 28 minutes from now or 280 years from now. When the superpowers square off against each other in two camps, then come back and we'll talk apacolpse.

Until then, just think regional conflicts, wars between rump states, proxy wars and brinksmanship. If you recall the Yom Kippur War in 1973, a coalition of Arab States (Egypt, Syria and Jordan) were soundly defeated by the Israelis. That was a worse situation than the current conflict and it didn't raise a blip on the world war radar (not that it didn't have the potential to spark a global war).

The next World War will involve a nuclear exchange, how could it not. In the first 30 minutes, nearly a billion people will have been vaporised, mostly in the US, Russia, Europe, China and Japan. Another 1.5 billion will die shortly thereafter from radiation poisoning. The northern hemisphere will be plunged into prolonged agony and barbarity.

Eventually the nuclear winter will spread to the southern hemisphere and all plant life will die. You ask when is the apacolypse, you are asking when will we commit global suicide. My answer is it won't happen soon because the larger superpowers are more rational than the rump states in the middle east.

Our biggest risk is an accidental launch of nukes by one of the nuclear powers.

I have 2 answers. First, a nuclear war. Every major cities in the world will be destroyed. Second, a comet or asteroid will destroy our planet. If the asteroid hits the Pacific Ocean, it will splash thousands of gallons of water to the countries that surrounds it. Half of the world will be incenerated by the heat blast and the other half would be freeze to death by nuclear winter.

The world will NOT end. Ever. Only us humans have the arrogance to think that either we can end the world or the world itself will end. Mother nature always finds a way. The planet maybe un-inhabitable for a while, maybe a long time, but after a while everything will be back to the way it was. Think long term. I mean LONG term.

Nuclear war will not end the world nor humanity. But it will take us back to using sticks and stones again.

The survival rate of any species is ultimately zero, given enough time.

The sun, by definition, in time will expand and grow larger. So large that it consumes the earth. I'm not kidding.
