Was the 1918 flu pandemic, the worst the world has ever seen, caused by global warming, Big Pharma, or genetic engineering?

I am not a scientist or a doctor, so I do not know anything about the 1918 Flu pandemic, nor is science and historical pandemics -- and area I ever do research into, so I can only give my opinions from my own perspective.

My thoughts are that pollution caused by global warming, Big Pharma, or genetic engineering, could not of caused the 1918 flu pandemic, because my guess is Big Pharma, or genetic engineering, etc., perhaps did not exist in 1918.

My grandfathers and his brothers started the first supermarket chain in New England around then; and that was not in any way considered the big supermarket business. When, they were in business, they made their millions from being diversified, by being on the boards of banks, building hospital funds, Real Estate, etc., and starting the first supermarket chains, so they were just considered my guess is "big millionaires," not big pharma, or big food industry (supermarkets).
