ENVIRONMENT IN FILMS AND BOOKS
For the silence of two months, I had a very busy December but now I will be in touch. To the thematic report of January, ¡°Environmental Films and Books¡±. Myself I have one animated movie and one series. I chose these three because they artistically sent a message to the world about the conservation of the Environment.

1. SIREN

In siren, Ben and his girlfriend Meddie are working on the marine research institute, in a meanwhile they meet with mermaid RYN who came to the land to find her sister DONNA who had been held by a military for the research.

For the commercial and economic purpose Ben¡¯s Father is operating a company of the oil extraction in the ocean which caused the noise pollution intolerable for the mermaid to live in the sea, thus they had to shift and live with Ben and Meddie.

This shows how economic activities disturb the nature and led to the perishment of some species which are very important and beneficial to the planet.

Ryn and other Mermaids of her family under the help of Ben and Meddie had to go under the sea to destruct machines that are used to extract oils in the ocean, though some of mermaids died.

People like Ben and Meddie are mostly needed for the planet, to make sure that we fight for our survival through conserving our environment to make them sustainable. I can make comparison that Ben and Meddie are just like Greta Thunberg while Ben¡¯s father is like Donald Trump.
2. MOANA
Many of activities have been influencing the climate change. I always believe that ¡°if we disturb the nature, nature will disturb us¡±

Te fiti believed to be the goddess of the nature, unfortunately Maui (master sailing) steal the heart of Te fiti (pounam stone).
Te fiti was one who brought lives to the ocean and for the plants (she gives the green to earth), so after the heart being taken the Polynesian island was destructed with no any green (drought took place)

Maui believed by stealing the pounam stone he will have more power like Te fiti, unfortunately he did not get what he wanted. Te fiti became harsh; killing anybody came to its side.

A very young girl MOANA helped the Polysian Island by taking back the Te fiti heart, the nature came back again, and people enjoyed the life again.

People like Maui are still existing, countries leaders are just there to exploit the resources until it¡¯s hazardous for them to handle. So we environmentalist we have to stand firm to protests the acts of leaders and government of destructing the environment in order to bring back the nature as MOANA did.
