Depends on what you mean by ‘the world’ – do you mean human life, or the Earth, or the whole universe. Either way, stars don’t last forever and our sun is no exception. Eventually the sun will die out and that’s it for us (though, this is years and years and years and years away from happening – who knows what will happen between now and then?)

If you mean how will human life end, there are many theories – see Exit Mundi

It’s gonna end…........ NOW
or…........NOW
or…..NOW

If you say “now” once a second for the rest of your life, you’ll have a better chance of being right.

some say 2012… Others say before 2060. I believe conciousness is an infinite energy or soul that will inhabit some form life form somewhere. Don’t look for and end to the world, but a new beginning to a new life. Remember hindsight is 20/20, and the earth is more resilliant than you think.
