  Quite possibly. There are several theories about impending distastes that would wipe out the human population if we weren’t fully prepared. Gigantic volcanic eruptions, meteor impacts and extreme climate change could all mean we die out like the dinosaurs. In each case there are teams of scientists trying to work out the probability of the disaster happening and ways to prevent it.
