Apocalypse When? A Visual Guide To Doomsday Possibilities
Keep in mind this is the real deal, and not any of this wimpy economic collapse stuff. We’re talking planets and stars exploding, near-extinction, and Bruce Willis coming to the rescue type of stuff.
One event that we have talked about before is human overpopulation, and the concerns that it brings to natural resources and the environment. As the global population moves towards 10 billion and with fertility rates dropping as countries get more advanced, we don’t see this as being an apocalyptic scenario. However, we do see it as causing scarcity and creating opportunity for resource investors and the creation of new technologies.
One common theme in this tongue-in-cheek graphic is that all of these scenarios involve our planet. That is why expanding beyond into space is important, and people like Elon Musk have a good point. The sooner we colonize a planet like Mars, the sooner we find a way to avoid the full extinction possibility of some of these potential events.

The LBMA is melting and this stuff is posted.
Boring.
Or else Hilary gets elected......
WTF... ???
All the "Apocalypse" that have happened already and MAN wasn't responsible for even ONE?
How in the fuck are we supposed to cover HALF of the future Apocalypse with such a shitty ass track record? Weak ass fucks.
I knew it was going to be the bees. I KNEW it!
Apocalypse is fun to joke about, of course, but I think the reality is that whatever gets us probably won't be on the short list of "here's what's going to get us".
Yeah, it will be one of those who cudda knowed thingies.....
Got Jesus?
This thing lost all credibility when they tossed in global warming. We've been COOLING for a decade. Arctic and Antarctic ice are at record thickness and volume, global temps are decreasing, ocean temps are decreasing, the Great Lakes were frozen ALL YEAR long, something never recorded before, it snowed on the Sphinx, a first in over a century. Climategate was the single biggest scientific fraud in human history, and the intellectually immature fucktards getting frostbite at global frauding rallies till try to push this shit on us.
Rumsfeld's "unknown unknowns" made the list!
Wackoism.
http://www.natureworldnews.com/articles/7541/20140612/great-lakes-break-...
the lakes melted after record long frozen (but not all year)
the global warming/cooling partisans remind me of the protestants and catholics in the thirty years war.
This from the NY Times today:
Last year (2014) was the hottest in earth’s recorded history, scientists reported on Friday, underscoring scientific warnings about the risks of runaway emissions and undermining claims by climate-change contrarians that global warming had somehow stopped. Extreme heat blanketed Alaska and much of the western United States last year. Several European countries set temperature records. And the ocean surface was unusually warm virtually everywhere except around Antarctica, the scientists said, providing the energy that fueled damaging Pacific storms. In the annals of climatology, 2014 now surpasses 2010 as the warmest year in a global temperature record that stretches back to 1880.He's out back, vacuuming the pool.
my vote is for the unknown unknown thingy--
Me?
Yeah.
That's a win win for everyone.
Though all the nihilists that have been unleashed will be unhappy,
you can't please everyone.
Godspeed good Creatures.

now that's what i call a sticky situation!
What about the next Carrington Event level solar storm? No good apocalypse map is complete without that deathly morsel.
Don't forget about Planet X and/or Nibiru. We just don't know if the return of the Annunaki will bring apocalypse upon us all.
Personally I've always been afraid of the Thread. They ever start dropping on Earth, well, we've killed off all the Dragons so we are fucked.
Damn, I read that story and can't remember the title.
As to apocalypse...with Ukraine drafting 50k troops to die against Russia, and their resulting NATO membership that leads to...
well, prevailing winds usually blow towards Los Angeles.

You, dear reader, are so very small and powerless.
So stick with the fucking script.
Got it?
What do you mean, "biblical"?
Dr Ray Stantz: What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath of God type stuff.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Exactly.
Dr Ray Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes...
Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave!
Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!
Mayor: All right, all right! I get the point!

I think the end will be a mass suicide of everyone over 30 when Miley twerks during the next academy awards presentation. Those under 30 will be unable to operate any of the machinery of our civilization and will die of hunger, cold, and boredom when Spotify goes dark.
So, basically a Unified Idiocracy Theory.
I sense it, too.
The last war will be when Ukraine gains membership to NATO due to it's 'stalwart defense of Europe against Russian aggression'. Europe then starts mobilizing (best they can with no fucking oil) and Russia waits for mud seaason. Once the the "Mire MarchTM' begins the nukes start to fly.
As a Californian I will be an accomodating host to our chinese invaders, providing a map and the directions to DC and, hopefully, the prevailing winds blow the ashes of Los Angeles into the ocean.
We ARE going to pay a heavy price for what our asshole "leader's" have lead us into...it's a shit sandwich and we're all going to have to not only take a bite, we're going to have eat the fucking thing whole.
I guess I'm confused here as I thought we had ushered in the new Millennia of Hope and Change......
nope
I remember the age of Aquarius and we survived that.....
Bad news is that the hippies survived that, too.
No one said hope and change for the better. You want change? I'll give you change!
Nah... The New Millenium Cyanide Christ
Whew. No Naked Yellen. That would have been the end.

The apocalypse comes when i get my dick out and beat you all to death with it.

If all the crap listed above happens..... it'll effect rich and poor alike. Wow...... some fairness in this world???
Not in my lifetime!!!!
Fairness got nothing to do with it.
There are so many ways that life as we known it can be wiped out that we wouldn't have time to worry about it because we were busy worrying about it.
We all get wiped out eventually anyhow.......

Prophecy prevents any of these from Happening. Jesus will come back and the earth will last into eternity
Run of the mill God mocking blasphemy or poorly worded warning?
um, not eternity. Jesus returns, millenial reign, satan released from pit, earth destroyed by fire, new heavens and earth. Fixed it for ya.
Um, that's some amazing amounts of matter, energy and tech that would be required to accomplish all this.
A 'deity' would have a far easier time to do the obvious and far easier thing: Fix the damn software of humans, and release Rev. 2.0.
Don't you just hate Occam's Razor?
noben, he's just giving the general gist of revelations as it's written.
And I think it includes HU2.0.
It might be because by the time of the Reign that the earth has been so polluted by us that it has to be cleansed back to purity by devine hand. Otherwise that thousand years may be significantly shorter.

I hear you.
Even Ragnorok needs a kickstart.

Guys, I'm married to the third woman to 23 years, just gave a beautiful fuck, think about it from time to time.
Sex is good.
If the woman does not want, say softly in her ear:
The means to the end is good ...
hehe.
What does...
...Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkklkkkkk....
...mean on your planet?
You do that a lot. I've been meaning to ask you this. Not making fun, just seek to understand the ways of your kind.
iS THERE LIFE AFTER SEX?
Case Study:
William Jefferson Clinton
Unfortunately, your humor does not translate well a lot of the time. It leaves us wondering 'what the hell?'.
How does the following translate to you?
"A little Native American boy asks his chief how babies in their tribe get their names.
The chief replies, "When a baby is born, the father takes him outside of the teepee, holds him over his head, and names him after the first thing he sees - like 'Running-Wolf' or 'Flying-Cloud'. Why do you ask, Two-Dogs-Screwing?""
How much is that in ounces?
Ecclesiastes 2:24
A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God,
A nuclear accident could only ever happen once every half a billion years, said the scientists. So we're likely to see all of these happen in the next ten years or so.

Well, for me I do not eat anything that comes from the Pacific Ocean.
As ate nothing north of Nuclear Power Plants of Angra dos Reis in Brazil.
The sea currents in that region comes from the South.
Better to be alone with this information, my colleague who told died in an interesting way so to speak.
hehe.
That's odd.
I drive from Indianapolis to just south of Brazil every morning to have my morning ride on the thunder bucket. Wife insists on it, for some reason.
Been doing it for 44 yrs now. My bad.

I find it strange ...
An F-5 fighter needs three refueling in the air (REVO) to come to Santa Cruz in Rio Grande do Sul State to the Air Base of Manaus, are + or - 4,500 km (kilometers).
Or you do not know or am Brazilian, jumped the Geography classes while studying.
For my part, without remorse.
I'm used to hearing Americans that Brazil's capital is Buenos Aires and the Amazon River flows into the Iguaçu Falls!
Ow, getting "heads up" and take the Alaska, Brazil is territorially larger than the US.
Think about it, see some maps.
Mane!
No hard feelings.
hehe.

Is that the take away, fat fingers?
Si, but the Bush family own sitting on top of South Americas and worlds biggest water source lake in Paraguay. Soros has piece of Argentina and brazil. I would think those are termimal events yes no? For sure depopulation has been in process there a while I would be more scared of them than an asteroid at this moment.

Everybody knows its going to be a zombie apocalypse. that is the only fun one.
Worse still "all that is now continues."
The banksters are the biggest plague to strike mankind EVER.
The infection is spread and sustained by governmnet parasites.
The banksters need to repay us.
Guillotines are the cure and the preventive.
Thanks fore the reminder Cato...and then need to be destroyed.
Guillotines are good, but I prefer someone like Vlad the Impaler to set the correct example of what to do with a banker today.
Funny, I just got a deja vu. Is the matrix skipping again doctor?

what about old dogs and children and watermelon wine?
I've had more experience with fried baloney, eggs, and gravy.
So I guess I'm gonna be here for awhile.
I see the end as being much, much more boring and drawn out.
A bit like the movie Groundhog Day, but instead of Andy McDowell you get Yellen or some shit like that.
I used to dream and anticipate much more production value for this event.
Where is the apocalypse event where Chris Christie eats the earth?
Right before the one where he dips it in CheezWiz, one supposes.
And right after the one where he craps a new planet into the solar system.
Planet Jersey.
I hope reincarnation is bullshit.
The closest known stellar black hole is Cygnus X-1 about 6000 light years away.

Most of you know that there are only two realistic options as we skip merrily into the 21st century.
If there were to be all out nuclear war, it would have already happened, when the US had a clear advantage over Russia in the device and delivery department.
But the arrow of time was shot past the bepussied erstwhile presidents of the US and now, if the Russians haven't actually caught up with us, they certainly have enough juice to knock the world off its axis.
And while Orwell himself doesn't tell us what caused the confrontation that left the world divided into tres partes, you don't have to be one of the 3 Learned Rabbis -- Greenspan, Bernanke or Fischer -- to figure it out for yourself.
It was a world-wide depression, which was euphemistically called a 'world-wide weak recovery', that brought the great powers to the point of hostilities or orwellization.
Hey, wait a minute. That's where we .......
Sheesh!
I was hoping for something better when I looked at that chart, but no ... Furthermore, these kinds of articles seems to attact a larger percentage of stupid comments, than most other articles, (except those which poke the poisonous sores of currently most serious conflicts.)
and Bruce Willis coming to the rescue
Q99X2 is already here. What do you need that punk for? Don't worry everything is going to be fine. The neocons are pussies as are the banksters and oligarchs. Once one of the fascist scum falls the rest will run to turn all their vermen brethren in. #1 it is the path of least resistance. #2 The populations within their nation-states are against them. #3 there are oligarchs that realize they do not wish to die in a nuclear holocaust and they will easily profit immensely by doing the right things at this point; as compared to following down the neocon path.
The battle is already halfway won.
Where in the list is the fraudopalypse, that is death by an unending list of misplaced nobodies working to convince all that they are somebody important and above the Laws of the Land?
Or, where is building radiation from meltdowns/meltouts?

Current crisis, and alas only beginning, is for a major part due to the fact that we are currently at global peak oil.
