Possible causes of the disaster

I personally think that the killings brought about by the environment are affected by emotions, that is, if a person is anxious, worried, afraid, and angry, plants will respond to them to protect themselves when they feel this threatening emotion. This reaction is propagated by the wind to cause humans to commit suicide. It's like a person tearing roses if he is worried that his boyfriend loves him or not. At this time, the roses feel the anxiety in people's hearts, and the roses begin to react to suicide in case people will tear them and cause humans to destroy plants. Emotions become emotions that hurt oneself.
To cite a few examples in the movie, at the beginning, two young girls on a bench in Central Park, one of them was anxious about seeing the pages of the book, and the other happy girl observed the strangeness in the park: someone seemed to be very Anxiety is scratching myself. So all the people who were anxious and fearful of anger died in a moment, and the happy little girl was fine. The happy guy at the end of the film watched the friend who was worried about where his bicycle was parked committing suicide.
And everyone's nonsense before death is something they are worried about, anxious, and angry. "What page did I see?", "I really shouldn't park the car there!" Another young girl called "Calculus". Calculus kills people. . .
It can be seen that the place where the poison gas is released is not because of the large number of people and plants. The old woman was poisoned by herself, because she was angry at the time and was angry with the hero. The heroes and heroines are always fine, probably because of the relief in the heart and the calmness brought by love. The plants feel that this emotion is not threatening, and there is no toxin in the wind.
The director has been saying that the emotional ring is probably also alluding to this aspect.
Love makes people survive, and remember not to mess with flowers.
