While it is impossible to say for certain what will happen, scientists and researchers have put forward several potential scenarios based on our current understanding of the world and the universe. One possible way in which the Earth could end is through the gradual warming of the planet due to human-caused climate change. As greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, temperatures around the world are increasing, leading to more frequent and intense heatwaves, wildfires, and extreme weather events. If this trend continues unchecked, it could ultimately lead to the collapse of ecosystems and the extinction of many species, including humans.
