    Aprox 1000000000-1500000000 for the end of life (due to increased solar radiation vaporizing the oceans) and approx 5000000000 for when the Sun vaprises the planet due to going red giant. :D

    The world ended back in 2012 when the mayan calendar ran out. This is now purgatory.

    The world has recovered from 4 near extinction events. It will be fine. Humans, not so well.

    You may want to read up on what happens when our Sun becomes a Red
    Giant. The world won't be recovering from that. It's only a
    matter of time - about 5 billion years.

    If we manage too curb humanity's effect on the global climate, I'd give it a bout a billion years before the Sun's luminocity becomes too great for life to continue to exist on this planet.

    I wasn't referring to the solar event mentioned above. Short of the sun changing it's status, I feel most people still believe the world revolves around humankind, and the end of man would be a devastating event.

    Actuakky, as I implied a few days ago, scientists believe the
    world will become inhabitable in 1 billion years or a bit after.
    The reason is because the Sun is gradually heating up as it
    consumes its fuel, and is already around 30% more luminous than
    it was when it first formed. For the time being, the biosphere
    is able to regulate the Earth's temperature, but eventually that
    capacity will be exceeded. At that point, the oceans will
    vaporise, and Earth could become a second Venus.

    Ahhhh yes, I missed that part on the first reading. Very true,
    and that will certainly be an interesting time the last few
    centuries that humans can stand the temperatures. And here we are
    complaining about a little "global warming"... ;-)

    The issue with that "little bit of global warming" is that it's faster than normal, which means ecosystems can't adapt as easily, and with the breakup og habitat, it's harder for plants (via seed spread) and animals to migrate to different temperature zones. And it also has massive implications for agriculture.

    In reality, the end of humanity would be one of the best things for life on Earth in general, it would seem. :/ Life will go on long after we're gone from the Earth, at least until that point in the future when conditions are no longer conducive to life.

    No argument on any of that - was just poking a little fun at the
    difference between that and utter annihilation of the planet. ;-)

    Haha good one. :) Well, we know it's most probable that the Sun will take care of the latter, in around 5 billion years time. ;)
