If you are looking for further ways of ending the world in a major disaster, may I suggest you read "Catastrophes and Lesser Calamities - the causes of Mass Extinctions" by Tony Hallem.
Chapter 11 - The influence of Humans, is an interesting chapter; ditto chapter 7 - Climate Change.

Chapter 4 - Impact by comets and asteroids
My favourite - Volcanic Activity (Chap. 8) Yellowstone National Park, the supervolcano which is overdue by 5,000 years for it's big irruption.
