The average distance is 16,000 km
Converging rate is  10 cm/year
1 km = 100,000 cm
 = 16,000 × 100,000/10 cm/year
= 160,000,000 years
It will then take 160 Million years to collide.

why do some scientists theorize that global warming might not be the result of increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide
PtichkaEL [24]

Explanation:

In Earth’s history before the Industrial Revolution, Earth’s climate changed due to natural causes not related to human activity. Most often, global climate has changed because of variations in sunlight. Tiny wobbles in Earth’s orbit altered when and where sunlight falls on Earth’s surface. Variations in the Sun itself have alternately increased and decreased the amount of solar energy reaching Earth. Volcanic eruptions have generated particles that reflect sunlight, brightening the planet and cooling the climate. Volcanic activity has also, in the deep past, increased greenhouse gases over millions of years, contributing to episodes of global warming
