In the time of acute climate crisis, the world of celluloid has taken the place of primary role of school to create awareness about climate change. Yuan Pan argues that these animation focus on intrinsic commonalities which help in creating more equal societies of harmony with nature.

Films with powerful environmentally centred narratives transforms the thinking and also connects us more to nature. For example, Studio Ghibli, a renowned Japanese film studio co-founded by animator Hayao Miyazaki. This animation creates visual stories about human -nature relationships that transcends the barrier of culture and age. The Romantic movement in English literature was initiated after the mass cutting down of trees and Wordsworth gave the slogan of “return to nature”. Literature and arts have always invoked people to raise awareness against the issues faced in the society. The key message of Miyazaki’s work is that we must respect nature-or face our own destruction.

Miyazaki’s films offer viewers moments of escape into fantastical worlds that nonetheless echoes problem of modernity. Here are some of the other film which have strong message in their animated film. Which will surely raise the question in the mind of children and adult and as well entertain them.
