Animal Planet: The Animals Save the Planet

BROADCAST
Animal Planet teams with Aardman to save the planet
by Rob Shepherd

Animal Planet International and Wallace & Gromit creator Aardman Animations have teamed up to launch a series of short films focused on saving the natural world.

Animals Save the Planet is a series of humorous animated clips narrated by Dawn French, which features tips from animals on how to live an eco-friendly lifestyle.

The 10x20-30-second clips feature ten short clay animated creatures in their own habitats, demonstrating how we can all make a difference by practicing a greener lifestyle.

Viewers can watch as some of their favourite creatures talk, providing useful and positive tips on living a cleaner lifestyle. These include a penguin that discovers how much effort energy-saving light bulbs can save him, and a cow that learns about the environmental impact of his own methane gas.

Other clips include a pug dog realizing that by turning off electrical appliances in the evenings he will finally get a better night's sleep

The shorts can be seen on Animal Planet in the UK on Sky and Virgin Media from next month.
