Hi,
Congratulations, great idea, very funny…and it’s always better to create awareness with a smile!

Really great, best I’ve seen yet - but I’m sure your cat is possessed… ;D

What was that about? That was very bad, this is the shortlist?!

Love this video, one of the strongest in getting the message across, the message being for those above who don’t seem to understand is that we humans need to take responsibility for our actions and help the other species on this planet who also share our environment. For me this was one of the best creative and clever ways of getting a message across without lecturing or looking for sympathy. Well done!

Ayesha,
Great job. Very creative. Good luck.

It touches your heart… makes you realize that in reality, animals too feel the climate change (why not? they’re sensitive enough to predict earthquakes!), but unlike us, are totally unable to do anything about it… Let’s move our ass.

My dog Bandit hates this film almost as much as I do, he has also told me that he and his mate Burt could do far better, but I would not submit it for him.
This film is crap.

Cute ..simple and sweet
If you make things too serious and dramatic people zone out no one wants to be hit over the head with another lecture.Its not arrogant or condescending people hate that about environmentalism.
This is fun and cute it is relateable.
Besides that cat has the WOW factor;-)

In a competition, there are always finalists and those who don’t get through. The problem we had was that there were so many fantastic videos to choose from that there was inevitably going to be great films that didn’t make it, especially as we had to meet a criteria for each category.
However, we’ve decided to rectify this a little and reward 5 more great videos. These have been added to the shortlist and will also guaranteed receive a subscription to Shooting People. They will be on our homepage soon.
The five videos are:
Tank head, Nature finds a way, Paving the planet, Earth clock, Restore the earth
WHAT WAFFLE FROM THE JUDGES THESE FILMS SHOULD BE REMOVED!
THIS COMPETITION HAS BEEN CORRUPTED!

my little girl -loved- this video and made me play it for her at least 5 times. she’s the reason we care to make a difference in the fight against climate change so her opinion counts the most as far as we’re concerned. this video gets our vote!!

wow. what a massive waste of my time. so much so that i feel i need to waste yours with this.

sorry i just realized that this website is actually against climate change. im pro-change personally. as a parasitic and gradually space-fairing race we have a few thousand years to burn this fu*ker up before jetting off. i say why not. its not like the earth hasn’t survived worst. and sure, if its still populated in a few thousand years you probably wont be able to live on the equator. but england will be a sunny paradise.

Superb, gentle, subtle and effective.
thank you

Thought this was very clever. If we could understand what animals think and they could speak to us - what could we say in response to what we are doing to their world as well…….mmmmmmmm very clever …… and a natural response from the cat as well…..mine also does this little twitter when it see a fly……ha ha

[...] My Paper Boat by Arun Bose from India, was judged the overall winner. Another very strong entry, Cats against climate change, has gone viral, receiving over 300,000 hits on Youtube in the past two [...]

I loved it! Very effective, but I suspect the dogs would feel the same way!

brilliant
sometimes understated simply gets right to the point
