Pollinator extinction
Food web would collapse but a handful of wind-pollinated and asexual species would survive and its not impossible that a small population of humans would stick around, although inbreeding would possibly kill them off after a few dozen generations

>cause apocalypse
"Apocalypse" means "revelation", which means you are looking for events which will cause you to see the future somehow. I don't think that this is possible

Aliens adapted to millions of years of life in space show up, ignore Earth, begin building Dyson swarm around our sun.
Mankind must develop into a spacefaring race before the swarm blocks out enough solar radiation to plunge the entire solar system into an endless ice age.

Seethe harder. "Apocalypse" is a greek word that means "revelation". It could be all about sunshine and rainbows without any fire and destruction involved and still count as an apocalypse. Again, seethe harder.

Quoted By:

>>13675990
Scientists create artificial gravity outside the earth's atmosphere. The earth's orbit is subtly but progressively altered and its axis' tilt is affected as well as the earth's rotation speed. Consequence: slow ecological disaster.

Here, now go write your novel.
