Image via WikipediaHere is my interpretation of the questions left unanswered in the movie The Happening.
Nature has its own way of adjusting itself. We humans are parasites on this planet, consuming all it’s resources without giving anything back to it. When human population in a certain area increases more than what is acceptable to nature, it uses its forces to balance that population with available resources. That’s why earthquakes and other natural disasters happen. I have observed that earthquakes and cyclones and other acts of nature generally happen in densely populated areas. Could this be just a coincidence? Maybe that’s why dinosaurs died, because they had grown too many for nature to handle.
If we continue to cut the trees, drill the oil, melt the glaciers, and release poisonous gases in the atmosphere, the natural equilibrium of earth will be heavily disturbed at one point in time (if it is not already), and that’s when a big mysterious disaster, such as one shown in movie, will occur and wipe out half of earth’s population.
That, in my opinion, is what they tried to show in the movie.
In the long run, we are all dead.
