"2012" is a hoax designed to scare children and adults who know nothing about science. There is no science behind it, and no scientists believe in it.
The world has existed for over four billion years. Is it reasonable to expect that it will come to an end in less than three years? And all because of a Mayan calendar? Use some common sense.
The most interesting astronomical events in 2012 will be an annular eclipse of the Sun on 2012 May 20, a total eclipse of the Sun on 2012 Nov 13, and a transit of the planet Venus across the face of the Sun on 2012 Jun 06.
Scientists don't expect anything out of the ordinary to happen in the year 2012, or specifically on the date December 21, except for the solstice, which happens every year.
None of the "predicted" happenings for 2012 hold up under close scrutiny. "Planet X" and "Nibiru" simply don't exist. The Mayan calendar ends a cycle, but there were no predictions of the end of the world. The Sun doesn't line up with the galactic centre; it's 6 degrees off. No asteroids or comets are actually predicted to hit Earth.
All of this stuff was put together by crackpots in order to promote their books and TV shows, and shamelessly promoted by the History Channel. Don't take any of it seriously!
The best way is to _inform yourself_ about 2012 by reading factual sites about it, rather than sites that are trying to sell you something. Here are a few:

its beter to prepare than not be ready at all if u dont beleive and it hapens it wil be like geting hit with a brik in the face but if your prepared and it doesnt hapen u can just laf after its 2012 any survival tips please for 2012
I must tell you that the giant spaghetti monster from outer space will crash into your house tomorrow. Are you going to prepare by buying in lots of parmesan cheese? I have no proof of the arrival of the spaghetti monster, you'll just have to accept what I say.
Does this sound stupid? Of course. But it's just like the big 2012 hoax. A bunch of crackpots make various stupid predictions with no evidence whatsoever and expect people to believe them and scurry around trying to save themselves and buy fake 'survival kits'. Are you one of these people? Or are you like me and the vast majority of the population who couldn't give a fig about the rantings of these idiots.
