Over at Treehugger, we introduce the 9th International Manga Summit that was held on September 6-8, 2008 in Kyoto, with “Environmental Innovation” as the main theme.We also couldn’t resist to show Tezuka Osamu’s wonderful anime Red Cat from 1980 (Part 1 on Youtube), with Astro Boy helping save the Spring Valley from destruction and development, complete with a mad professor, a corrupt government minister, and lots of wild animals that just won’t take it anymore!

Those in charge of the Manga Summit note:

Kyoto was the site of the United Nation’s Convention on Climate Change. We envision a convention that will boost awareness of sub-themes such as “global warming prevention”, “dietary education”, and “The 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle)”, while advocating the passing of the torch of a promising culture to the children and young people responsible for the next generation.
