well, as for the planet coming to an end, i think that humans will not see that happen.
As for civilization as we know it coming to an end, I think it will be the sun, continuing to warm the planet gradually, a few degrees per year, until finally, humans, along with much of the other inhabitants of earth are no longer able to survive.
We're in a big microwave, and everytime u spray your hairspray, or pass on the company carpool, electing to take ur own car instead, ur just pressing the "add 60sec button" to us all.

The end 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 or some wayward planet killing asteroid that we'll discover too late to interdict.

I'm going with the one where the sun swallows up the earth as it begins to die in several billion years. Short of that, I'm not sure if there's alot of present forces that can destroy an entire planet.

Everyone will be in pain, after a giant war that humans caused, and there will be great devestation.
But we'll all get a nice little wave of peace before we die. Like always.

The first one was kinda funny and the whole global warming one totally makes me laugh because the whole thing is a big pile of CRAP . . .
but I'm going to have to say that it's going to end with a big battle between god and satan just like the bible says . . .

I don't know how exactly, I do think the cause will be human stupidity, though.
