There is always some nutjob claiming the end of the world is coming probably 3-4 times every year. However I think we all have to agree that the 2012 Mayan thing will probably be the most widely accepted apocalyptic prophesy in history. So I'm just wondering what sort of feasible scenarios are out there which could contribute to this coming to pass. Some that I feel could fit the bill are

1. World/European economic meltdown
2. Major earthquake along American east coast
3. A major scientific breakthrough which questions everything we know
4. Contact with extra terrestrial life
5. Some issue with the LHC

I'm not saying you have to believe that anything is going to happen next year but what sort of things do you think could feasibly happen which would have major and dramatic repercussions for life as we know it?

A mega volcano in yellowstone park
The supervolcano under Yellowstone is a serious threat to the existence of life on the planet, but nothing compared to the NEO which could potentially hit us end-on in 2034. If calculations are correct, and we can't find a way of blowing it out of the sky, it is widely accepted that it will blow the earth apart...

Atalanta, thankyou for your reassuring thread.
Cheerful! I'm hoping for a quiet year. What's an NEO?
Ah, thanks :)

I'm reading that BBC report and I had heard of that volcano recently so it is a sure possibility. Also I read in the paper today about an almanac which predicts a major earthquake in California in April 2012 or thereabouts, among other things.
The Olympic Stadium implodes or explodes.......terrorist attack.
