Global threats to humans:
#1 is definitely Carrington event. It could happen any time and fry most of the power grids on earth at the same time, only have about 18 hours warning.
#2 volcanism, see 536ad, 2 and a half years long winter, that was only a 1,500 to 2,000 year event.
#3 tsunamis. One killed 250,000 people not that long ago and it could have easily been millions of people.
4# extraterrestrial impactors. It's happened before, it will happen again.
5# governments. Governments have killed hundreds of millions of people in the last 100 years.
I don't even know where global warming would rank. Clearly the "fix" for global warming could be wore than the effects. See Netherlands and Sri Lanka. The only logical conclusion is people will starve. It looks like they "fixed the problem" in Sri Lanka for now.
