What Will End The Earth?

[Elesaurus]

Well we all know 'something' will end the beautiful planet 'Earth'.

Just what; tho?

I think either global warming If not; then war.
Global warming is a big problem, even now, it's still a problem.
And I think it's still to late to sort out global warming, And will be a worse problem in more years to come.

If it ends up to war, It will be either a WW3 or to big counties threating to blow each other up with nukes.

What do you think will end the earth?

[JoS]

We will all die because of biodisel fuel. We will try and switch over to it and will run out of food because it will have all been divereted to biodisel and we will starve.

[Ravariel]

The sun's expansion into a red giant.

[maleduck]

I really don't think it will be global warming...probably nuclear war then the nuclear winter.

That won't happen for millions of years right?

Yeah, That's why I think war will proably end it first.
If not then that.

[animehater]

I remember saying to myself a long time ago that if i was to ever see another end of the world thread again it would be too soon, it looks like i'm right.

[Cheekyvincent]

the sun turning supernova?

[TheBasics]

Probably from a meteor 4-5 miles in diameter, if not that than yeah I guess nuclear war.

[Brick-top]

Are you talking about the Planet getting killed or the people on top of it?

Many things,

Mass volcano erruptions
suns radiation emissions
sudden change in the weather globally
Sudden change in oxygen content

[GothKid32]

War definantly.. We will have a new world war and this time everybody will use nuculer weapons..... And we all die because of the blasts and the nuculer winter to follow. The people that suvive will die off because there is no food and no shelter that we are all dead.........

SCARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's not big enough to go Nova. It'll probably just end up a white Dwarf (after the whole Red Gian phase).

And yeah, that won't happen for another 5 billion years or so... give or take a few millenia.

[duckiesrock]

The world will end becuase of resources and revelution. Soon the world will be out of oil, wood, and other items, so war will be needed to get them hence ending the world. Revelution becuase these poor countries are going to revolt sometime, this means genocide and that means death.

[altanese-mistress]

The Earth itself? Well in about five billion years the sun will go supernova and devour the inner planets. All sentient life on Earth? Most likely nuclear war. If not that, then a meteor.

[gijfef]

Ailiens are gunna blow the earth up in about a year. seriosely they are they told me by hijacking my phone whilst i was talking.
they even asked me if i wanted to go with them but i said nah i love eath you can kiss my arse green dick.

Supernova? The phrase you're looking for is Red Giant, because the Sun is too small to become a supernova, as mentioned in a previous post. But yes, the sun will devour the inner planets, before becoming a white dwarf.

[AdamRice]

You can't simply end the earth through war or nuclear weapons. You could exterminate the human population, but as long as the sun continues to provide consistant and habitable temperatures it will not end.

You could start a nuclear winter and kill all humans and land mammals, but you're never going to kill every last insect and deep sea creature. The only thing that will truely end the earth is the sun expanding into a red giant and engulfing everything in flames.

TomAEto/TomAHto. Either way the Earth is cooked, and if humanoid life is still around elsewhere it will have evolved away from us looooong ago.

[SolInvictus]

since we are talking about "ending" the earth and not life on earth, the only thing that will do it is the sun's expansion.

[Memorize]

Bush hitting the "red button".

[Kev-o]

Man.

[Hardcoded-Ham]

War, comet or evently the sun.

[Tony-DarkGrave]

I thought it was gonna be the mega comet die like the dinosaurs

[Me-Patch]

I saw on the History Channel's The Universe that the Universe is expanding at an insane speed and it will cause a rip made of dark matter to spread like the clap and destroy everything in it's path and leave the universe a lifeless energyless mass of dark matter.

[Proteas]

Why does it matter what will end the earth? It's not like anyone is going to be around to collect on the betting pool money if they're right anyway.

"Okay Bob, I said the world was going to end by nuclear winter and gosh darnit I was right. Now cough up my $20... Bob? BOB?!"

I agree with what this guy said. And to whoever said a 4-5 mile meteor, that will burn up before hitting the earth. We've survived MUCH bigger meteors in the past.

When I said 4-5 mile meteor I meant its going to be a 4-5 mile meteor after in gets through the atmosphere. While It will not make the planet explode (obviously) it will eradicate all life on earth.

DS: "This just in Tom; it seems Paris Hilton sneezed in prison today. We now take you to Asian correspondant Trish Takanawa in LA."

(BTW...I think the Earth will be destroyed by a migrating/roaming black hole...)

I was watching that last night, actually, and it said it would happen in 15 billion or something years. So I think we don't need to worry about that, especially since it's innevitable.

Global warming cant actually destroy the earth, it could kill 90% of the population, but humans have survived ice-ages in the past.

You should rename this to: what will end human life on earth, because not even humans have the means to acheive your "Apolcalypse" scenario where the earth actually explodes.

Nuclear war, possibly, But remember that a politiion may be unscrupulous, but so far there have been instances where there were MORE nuclear weapons then there are today, and where the world was completely divided, but both leaders on both sides were rational thinking, for the most part, trying to do what benififted their own country [lacking regaurds for other countries was what created the problems]

And nuking other countries doesn't fit that category, if one person fires a nuke then everyone fires a nuke and you have the end of the world, a nuclear attack requires consent from a variety of people at the same time, so if a leader is High on Cocain they still wont be able to fire a nuclear weapon.
