How will the world end? [POLL]

Well, even though there are various ways the World come somehow come to an end. But There is one way that the world will truly end.

In billions of years, the Sun will start to run out of fuel to burn inside itself, and begin to cool, thus expanding into a red giant. once it starts running out of more fuel, it will get larger and larger until eventually it will swallow the earth. But by the time that will happen, all of us here would be long gone.

Also technically, it isnt the End of the world Entirely, But the End of the existence of Human life. There are many ways this could happen, but if i had to pick from them, It would have to be a Natural disaster.

Also, Even if Human life were to be Wiped out from existence, Nature will somehow find a way to bring back living organisms or Develop a new Species that would reign supreme.

To quote a famous saying from Jurassic park: "Life find's a way."

 

Zombie Apocalypse.

 

Here's one scary way everything we know will end:

There is a theory that the vacuum in space is actually a "false vacuum", which means that it is not completely inert, and still contains a bit of energy, and if that's the case, then a more stable vacuum can exist, this means that the vacuum achieves metastability. So if the vacuum in space is not completely stable, then a bubble of more stable vacuum can come to exist anywhere, anytime, and it expands at the speed of light, possibly faster. This more stable vacuum would destroy everything in it's way, and we wouldn't know about it until we too are to be destroyed.

"If a more stable vacuum state were able to arise, then existing particles and forces would no longer arise as they do in the universe's present state. Different particles or forces would arise from (and be shaped by) whatever new quantum states arose. The world we know depends upon these particles and forces, so if this happened, everything around us, from subatomic particles to galaxies, and all fundamental forces, would be reconstituted into new fundamental particles and forces and structures. The universe would lose all of its present structures and become inhabited by new ones (depending upon the exact states involved) based upon the same quantum fields. In a new study posted on the arXiv in March 2015, it was pointed out that the vacuum decay rate could be vastly increased in the vicinity of black holes, which would serve as a nucleation seed."

 

The reason I think is when bees go extinct. "The consequence of a dying bee population impacts man at the highest levels on our food chain, posing an enormously grave threat to human survival." The bees are already going extinct, so this will effect the human race a lot, badly. This really isn't how the world would end, but how the human race will end. How the world would end in my opinion would be a meteor, or when the sun turns to the red giant in billions of years.

"Since 2006 beekeepers have been noticing their honeybee populations have been dying off at increasingly rapid rates. Subsequently researchers have been scrambling to come up with an accurate explanation and an effective strategy to save the bees and in turn save us homo sapiens from extinction. Recent harsh winters that stay freezing cold well into spring have been instrumental in decimating the honeybee population in Iowa by up to 70% as well as the other historically high yielding honey states – the Dakotas, Montana, Minnesota. The northern Plains and Midwestern states that have regionally always produced the nation’s most honey have been severely hurt by the long harsh winters in the last couple years. Florida as the third largest honey producer and especially California always among the top producers have been hit especially hard by decreasing bee colony populations."

 

In, about 4 billion years, The Milky Way and Andromeda galaxy will collide. Scientists still don't know what will happen to us, or if the Earth will survive it,There is only theories, But most likely during the collision the Gravity will tug the sun into a new orbit, dragging Earth and the other planets with it. That will be the end of the Milky Way, but will it be the end of us (if we survived that long)?
I've also watched a video on the theory on the collision, The astronomers kept saying "The Earth and the Solar System will be untouched" but can I really depend on their theory? How do we know if we are dragged into a black hole or we collide with another planet during the collision??!

Due to the massive amount of space between stellar systems, it is very unlikely the solar system will be affected, as collisions are very unlikely, as for black holes, they eject more mass then they take in, so they dissolve overtime, so risk of entering the vicinity of a black hole is highly improbable, therefore, the only black holes left during the galactic merger are the Sagittarius A* supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and the supermassive black hole in the center of the Andromeda Galaxy.

 

Yellowstone erupting.. I believe that because it is so large when it eventually erupts the smoke that comes from it will enclose the earth in a smoke screen. With this smoke screen no light can get to the Earth which will make the Earth dark and cold (recreating an ice age). Also, with no light plants cannot perform photosynthesis, which means no oxygen (slowly suffocating all of us). Its scary.

 

This. Also, before I add anything, who here watched the movie Interstellar? You remember the beginning when they were running out of crops? That was fking SCARY. Not because "omg, it's a dramatic movie" but because it's a very real possibility, especially if global warming creates weather and climate that food crops cannot tolerate (on top of pollinator extinction)!

 

The world will actually end in a few billion years when the sun turns into a red giant.

 

U.K. Leaving EU. (JOKES though I want to stay)

 

definitely something human related, humans are the only thing stupid enough to kill itself intentionally. Why not kill the entire earth while you're at it, humanity.

 

The mafia taking over and causing massive pollution

 

Ummm youd need to make an infinate poll because the possiblilities are endless.

 

True

Ofc it is Jesus coming to earth and big earthquakes and THE PLAUGE

 

Nuclear war... Well... Fallout? HECK YEAH! sign me in!
