How will the human race end?

[Working class pride]

If we last that long, we would almost certainly have the technology to get to another hospitable planet.

Unlikely mate, we cant even sort the transport to a football ground in East Brighton

Deffo disease. The AIDS, which is natures latest attempt to take us down, hasn't got us yet. Whatever it comes up with next will be pretty effective I rekon.

When the planet decides its had enough of us.

We will pollute the planet to the point where we cannot live on it any more, die out an in 50,000 years the planet will recover perfectly without us on it.

Reckon we have less than 200 years before this happens.

A collapse or sabotage of the financial system thus leading to mankind in reverting to survival of the strongest .

Well, from a purely English perspective ......





We will go out on penalties !

The only way to combat this Zombie problem is to build a wall around Croydon, put a roof on it, and cut off all the gas and electricity.

That's more the 'end of civilisation as we know it' though rather than the end of humanity itself. It would be more of a 'readjustment', humans would still be around, just in more manageable and sustainable numbers. Ditto if the icecaps melt and most of us drown.

You could be on the right lines though, if the world's population does get up to 10 billion quite quickly (which is what some have predicted) then it will be an interesting struggle between Mother Nature doing her level best to save the planet by culling humans via disease, pestilence and famine (plus us helping her by killing ourselves via war), and human ingenuity trying to cram even more people into the world.

Back in the 1970s though this question only had one popular answer: MAD, Mutually Assured (nuclear) Destruction. Everybody would fire their missiles and drop their bombs and the entire planet would be turned into a blasted, contaminated rock. This would be the end of everything, not just humanity. Personally I don't think the risk of that end has disappeared completely.

As far as the UK is concerned...

BBC News - UK population

70 million people by 2027, so say the 'experts'.

Why 'experts'? The ONS is packed to the gills with bona fide experts!

Shall we have a NSC sweepstake?

[Bold Seagull]

Shouldn't the Terminator/Matrix scenario of the machines we create turning on us be in there?

hmmmmm Trinity.....

 

[matthew]

After watching the 'The 11th Hour' I'll go with a man made disaster

 

[Meade's Ball]

The mention of Trinity there reminded me of the killer force of the cockjugglingthundercunt. We mustn't rule out that as a possible panhandledemic assassin.
