Maybe it's pedantic to point this out, but I seriously doubt anything humans can do would be able to wipe out all life on Earth, and I include nuclear weapons in that. Microbes can live in some crazy environments, and it only takes one surviving for life to persist and evolve into new species.

Human beings, on the other hand, and especially human civilization as we know it, well...

Is there any good studies or models showing how long shit like heavy metals and other chemicals will remain bioaccumulating in different food-chains like in lakes or coasts?

To think that will be our mark beyond the scorched steel frames and various hotspots of radiological, chemical or environmental damage.

We could probably Wandering Planet ourselves into the sun/out of the solar system. But that'd be deliberate rather than accidental, most likely.
