      A zombie apocalypse is pretty unlikely!

      There are viruses or infections which could make some of symptoms of zombies (Im thinking of ebola….) but im afraid that dead people cant get up and walk!

      Sorry about that, my guess for an apocalypse is either asteroid or nuclear war!

      Hmm, depends what you mean by apocalypse. If you want to destroy all life on the world then an asteroid impact would do the trick. We’re getting better at spotting them coming, although we still don’t know how we would stop one from hitting us.
      If you just want to destroy human civilisation, then climate change is the most likely culprit.
