I'm sorry but it pisses me off to think that our kid's need to be taught at age 5 that polar bears are dying( yeah right)and that we will all die.

  1. Children are the future.  We might not see all of the consequences of our bad habits today but our children and grandchildren will.  Plus it hits the same nerve as when we see a child die as opposed to an adult who has lived a longer life.  As far as teaching children, we as parents and a society like to ingrain these ideas into our children's heads.  If they start the habits now it will more likely stick as they grow up.  I know it worked for me (in both negative and positive ways).  I was always taught to be an evironmentalist and I didn't even litter growing up.


  2. They are tugging at your emotional heartstrings. Trying to get you to stop and think before you buy that gas guzzler or that ream of specialty paper from the deep dark rain forest. I have been working with school children and environmental issues. I detest the teaching these issues negatively. You can get your point over and impress children  with out the dramatization and doomsday energy.

  3. You're saying that kids shouldn't be taught about the environment, but it's OK for McDonalds, Disney, and other multimillion dollar corporations to advertise to children?

  4. It's good that they take the young children in the adds. Little children learn like that, now when they grow up, they would say to themselves as well as others, "Hey, pick the thing up, don't litter!" See, little people should be taught like that. They try to teach other people something and keep their enviroment clean and healthy.

  5. kuz most enviors are hard core weak minded libs.

  6. It is because the environment is one of the most important legacies (with culture) we are passing to them.

    Maybe commercials go to far but the fact is that we have to use the Earth wisely and with justice between and among generations.

  7. To drive home the point that if we don't take care of the Earth, future generations will be the ones to deal with the results.

  8. Because global warming is in the near future and our children ARE the future, aren't they?

  9. To answer your question, it's cute.

    And I support it. The kids don't deserve the dying world we're handing to them. To introduce them to the idea that everyone has an impact, that it's not too late to make a difference, is a great philosophy, even if it's just about selling cars.

  10. Most of them use kids to say that their future depends on us and stuff like that.

    I think it's good that they know abit about climate change.

  11. If you lack proof like they do, you must convince using emotions.  Nobody could risk upsetting children can they?

  12. everybody uses kids in their commercials

  13. They don't mind exploiting kids to further their con.

  14. they do this because childen are our future.  they are telling us that if we want to save the kid from what happend to the polar bear than we better go green
