Walt Disney Cartoons "Contain Secret Messages on the Environment"

A university of Cambridge lecturer has written a book titled "The Idea of Nature in Disney Animation". David Whitley thinks that Disney's classic cartoons can teach the public about environmental conservation.

While Disney movies are often regarded as little more than escapism, and have even been criticised as bland populism, many feature messages about conservation and the relationship between people and the natural world that have proved to be highly influential, Dr Whitley said.

This shows that Disney was "green" before green became hip. :)
