What will Ultimately End Life on Earth?

All life won't end until the Sun expands and burns us to a cinder. None of those other things would end all life.
No chance we make until the sun burns out.
Actually about done with A Short History of Nearly Everything(Bryson) and he dives into all this. Human existence is crazy short. May be butchering this but he put it, "If you spread your arms and that represents the timeline of earth, one stroke using a nail file on your longest finger would remove the equivalent time humans have roamed."

That’s cool stuff.
For the perverts on the board, another way to visualize it is by saying if the length of the Earth’s entire history was the same length as my flaccid weiner, the period of time that represents human beings walking around would be the same length of the edge of a morsel of my daddy’s poop that was stuck in the slit of my weiner.
Hopefully that helps
Cucumbers. Is complicated and I don't have time to explain but trust me, cucumbers.
Women.
Can't live with'em...can't live without'em.
Or so I heard.

We really didn't need to know that you bang your dad.
I voted other.
One likely cause is when we reach the singularity.
A.I. will become self aware and take us out.
Here is a great article for anyone interested. It has 2 parts.

If it’s humans then it will be nuclear war and the after effects. No way do humans survive their own undoing
Ending life on Earth would be difficult minus a rogue planet or a gamma ray burst too close for comfort. Even wiping out all humans doesn't look likely. Destroying civilization is much easier. Civilization may go to the wayside. Nuclear war, biowar, another plague, and current breeding practices. The fact that 20 geniuses produce one or two offspring and 20 morons produce 150.
Stupidity

Not sure there's an answer. Human life will go on until the Sun/Earth relationship is drastically changed. Global warming isn't going to destroy human life on Earth entirely - no way, no how. We evolve and adapt. If it's warmer and less land mass, we'll figure out a way to survive somehow. Maybe a lot fewer than today, but some will survive and, eventually, thrive. And recreate rap music and the cycle will repeat itself.
Plague, nuclear, etc. - not going to kill 7 billion people. And, you know if there is even one male and one female left, there's gonna be something going on that just leads to more people.

That was great book. Hard to imagine the research required to develop a book of this nature.
Maybe human life but neither would evaporate all life.
This is true, if nothing else the tardigrades (aka water bears) will survive. Those things are practically invincible.
Actually, the sun gets brighter over the next 800-900 million years & begins boiling away the oceans. Four billion years later, when the sun turns into a red giant & maybe envelopes the earth, we're long gone.
