ABOUT
HOLLYWOOD LOVES DOOMSDAY.Film producers have through the years looked

make money. However, there are some truths
in these films. In an article from CBSNEWS,

1. CLIMATE CHANGE
The mother of all apocalyptic fears, climate change is the biggest threat facing t
planet, many scientists say. Climate change could make extreme weather moresevere, increase droughts in some areas, change the distribution of animals and
diseases across the globe, and cause low-lying areas of the planet to be subme
in the wake of rising sea levels. The cascade of changes could lead to political
instability, severe drought, famine, ecosystem collapse and other changes that
Earth a decidedly inhospitable place to live.

2. ASTEROID!
It's the mainstay of disaster movies, but
scientists are legitimately worried that a spacerock could wipe out Earth. A meteor impact
probably doomed the dinosaurs, and in the
Tunguska event, a massive meteoroid
damaged about 770 square miles (2,000
square kilometers) of the Siberian forest in
1908. Even more frightening, perhaps, is that
astronomers only know about a fraction of the
space rocks lurking in the solar system.

3. PANDEMIC THREAT
New deadly pathogens crop up every year: Recent pandemics have include
outbreaks of SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome), bird flu, and, mo
recently, a coronavirus called MERS that originated in Saudi Arabia. And becaus
of our highly interconnected, global economy, a deadly disease could spread lik
wildfire. "The threat of a global pandemic is very real," said Joseph Miller, co
author (along with Ken Miller) of the textbook "Biology" (Prentice Hall, 2010).

4. FUNGUS AMONG US
Though bacterial threats are dangerous, fungal threats are even scarier, said David W
curator at the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology at the University of California, Berkele
"We've had a new amphibian fungal disease that has just had devastating effects,"
said of the chytrid fungus that is wiping out frogs across the United States.
An equally fatal fungus in humans would be catastrophic. And though bacter
deadly, antibiotics are plentiful. By comparison, we know much less about tre
fungal infections, Wake told LiveScience.

5. ENGINEERED DISEASE
Natural diseases aren't the only ones to fear.
In 2011, the scientific community was outraged that researchers had engineere
mutant version of the bird flu H5N1 that was transmissible in ferrets and transmi
via the air. The results sparked fears that engineered deadly diseases co
inadvertently escape from the lab or be intentionally released, leading to a gl
pandemic.

6. NUCLEAR WAR
Many scientists are still worried about the classic end-of-the-world threat: gl
nuclear war. Beyond North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's saber rattling and Irsecretive nuclear efforts, massive stockpiles of nuclear weapons around the g
could wreak destruction if they were to get into the wrong hands. Last year,
Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, a nontechnical magazine on global security foun
in 1945 by former Manhattan project physicists, moved the Doomsday Clock, at
minutes to midnight. The Doomsday Clock shows how close humanity is
destruction via nuclear or biological weapons or global climate change.

7. ROBOT ASCENSION
"The Terminator" may be science fiction, but killing machines are not far from real
The United Nations recently called for a ban on killer robots -- presumably becau
experts worried that several countries were developing them.
Many computer scientists think the singularity, the point at which artific
intelligence overtakes human intelligence, is near. Whether those robots will
benevolent helpers or the scourge of humanity is still up for debate. But a lot can
wrong when there are hyperintelligent robots armed with lethal weapons runni
around.

8. OVERPOPULATION
The fear of an overpopulated globe has been around since the 18th century, whe
Thomas Malthus predicted that population growth would cause mass starvation anovertax the planet. With the global population at 7 billion and counting, man
conservationists think population growth is one of the key threats to the planet. O
course, not everyone agrees: Many think population growth will stabilize in the nex
50 years, and that humanity will innovate its way out of the negative consequence
of the overcrowding that does occur.
