Recently we went to watch movie "Rio 2".
The story evolved when the family of Blue and Jewel took a journey to Amazon forest. It brought up the facts of illegal logging in the Amazon forest which has destroyed life of many. Macaw tribe have to hide themselves deep in the jungle before the bad people hunt for them, meanwhile they were also threatened by the destruction of their habitat.
The story of this movie highlighted the birds are planting the seed of Brazil nut - the source of their food, in the Amazon forest. They can even have war with the red macaws for their "brazilian nut tree farm". Which means, if they want to survive, they gotta plant their own trees!
The film has revealed that the greediness of human who would rather cut the trees down than protecting the animals living in the forests. They can do all harm on to tree-huggers to prevent themselves being stopped from digging the treasures out, and do agricultural and cattle pasture activities. It is reflective to our current situation. The voice of environmentalist is too weak before the rich developers and multi-national logging companies who ruled with power in this game.
Blu played a hero part by leading the birds to fight against the human destroyers. The sad scenario in this real world is our birds and animals are too fragile in the hands of the bad.
I hope the kids who watched this in the cinema theatre could realise the situation of Amazon rainforest now.
