When Adult Cartoons Get Serious About Saving the Planet

Alright, picture this: you’re binge-watching one of your favorite adult animated TV shows, probably something where the characters swear more than your overly caffeinated aunt at Thanksgiving, and suddenly—BAM!—you’re smacked right in the face with an environmental message. Yeah, I’m serious. It’s like the animated version of that friend who swears they’re “totally not preachy” but then goes on a 20-minute rant about saving the bees.

Now, don’t get me wrong. I love my cartoons with a side of absurd adult humor. I want raunchy, over-the-top jokes, questionable life choices, and maybe a talking cat with no chill. But lately, these adult cartoons have been sneaking in some pretty meaningful environmental messages, disguised in the best ways possible—usually by making you laugh until you realize you just learned something about carbon footprints.

Why Are Adult Cartoons Talking Green?

It makes sense, really. If you think about it, adult animation series creators have a captive audience — people like us who grew up watching cartoons but also care about the planet (and/or are freaking out about climate change). Plus, there’s something powerful about delivering a message through absurd pacing, quirky characters, and bizarre storylines. You can't just lecture people about recycling; you gotta make them laugh while you’re doing it. It’s like sneakily getting kale into a smoothie—it tastes better if you don’t notice it right away.

Examples of Environmental Messages in the Best Adult Cartoons

  • Futurama: Classic example. Between Bender's existential crises and Fry’s naive optimism, the show tackled everything from space pollution (hello, Planet Express ruining the galaxy one delivery at a time) to the ethics of cloning endangered species. Plus, how can you not laugh when a giant, mutant cockroach hints at the consequences of toxic waste?
  • BoJack Horseman: Now here’s a show that’s depressing and beautiful and weird all at once. Amid all the celebrity drama and personal demons, the series subtly critiques consumerism and the environmental toll of Hollywood excess. Plus, you get some feel-bad laughs about how bad we are to ourselves and the planet.
  • Rick and Morty: This one doesn’t do a heavy-handed "save the planet" lecture, but it absolutely loves to mock human arrogance and the destruction we cause—whether it’s by annihilating lesser species or just totally ignoring all the red flags on ecosystem collapse.

And Then There’s a New Kid on the Block: Squat! Sitcom

Okay, before you ask, "Squat! Sitcom" is not just another adult cartoon trying to slam you with morals. It’s actually an outrageous adult cartoon series that has all the comedy you want, plus a surprisingly good heart about fitness and well-being, which totally ties into environmental awareness if you think about it: healthier people, healthier planet, right?

Here’s the cool part: they even have their own online hangout spot, Squat Spot Fitness, where you can join the fun, get moving, and maybe laugh your way through some squats. Watch Squat! now and join the fun at Squat Spot Fitness! It’s like a party, but with more sweat and less sad songs about the environment (though sometimes that happens too).

Why It Works So Well

You might be wondering, how the heck do these shows make me care about ecological disasters when I’m just trying to unwind and fall asleep after a day of adulting? That’s the magic trick of the best adult cartoons out there. They speak the language of sarcasm, cynicism, and sometimes straight-up absurdity, which makes the environmental messages sneak in without feeling like a lecture.

Plus, because they're adult humor cartoons, they can poke fun at humanity’s cluelessness with a wink and a nudge. Instead of despairing about melting ice caps, maybe you laugh at a character who’s literally planting trees on Mars because Earth got too messed up. It’s weird, it’s funny, and suddenly you’re thinking about sustainable living without even meaning to.

My Two Cents (and a Recycle Bin Full of Opinions)

Here’s the deal: as adults, cartoons have evolved from just pure escapism to something that can entertain AND nudge you toward caring just a little bit more about the world you live in. Because, honestly, if the characters who cry about a romantic breakup can also cry about their plastic addiction, I feel like the message hits harder.

So next time you’re curled up with a bag of chips, watching your favorite adult animation, pay attention. There might be a sneaky lesson about climate change or sustainability lurking underneath all the chaotic punchlines. And if you want a fresh, fun, and unexpected way to combine laughs, fitness, and a pinch of “let’s maybe save the planet,” definitely check out Squat! Sitcom.

Until then, keep your humor sharp, your carbon footprints light, and your cartoons… well, irresistibly inappropriate with a green twist.
