Human extinction, or omnicide, refers to the possible ending of the human species, either by population decline due to singular natural events—for example, space irradiation, asteroid impact, or large-scale volcanism—or via anthropogenic destruction (self-extinction). Some of the many possible contributors to anthropogenic hazards are climate change, global nuclear annihilation, biological warfare, weapons of mass destruction, and ecological collapse.
