A cartoon series, “Captain Planet” is created in 1990. It is about a superhero which can be called upon with the 5 planeteers rings, i.e, Earth, Fire, Water, Wind and Heart. A superhero called Captain Planet is “summoned” to help prevent looting and polluting that is happening on Earth. we think that this is a good cartoon as it to not only entertains but educate especially the kids on saving the environments and how to use the 3Rs, that is Reuse,Reduce and Recycle.With the superhero’s favourite phrase,” The Power is Yours!” it means that the “power”, that is saving the Earth and its habitants lies in everyone’s responsibility.
If there is superhero, of course there eill be villain like Hoggish Greedly. He is a pig-like human which represents the dangers and harm n industrializations and greed. There are quite a number of villains too.
Here is the opening of the cartoon series:
And the theme song:
THE POWER IS YOURS!
