There's a monster in my kitchen

Jag-wah's forest home is being burnt down to graze cattle and grow animal feed for meat. If we don't act, more precious habitats will be ruined, Indigenous Peoples could lose their homes, and we'll lose the fight against climate change.

Monster, the sequel to Rang-Tan, a new short film from Greenpeace made with four-time Academy Award®, Golden Globe®, BAFTA and Emmy nominated animation studio Cartoon Saloon and independent creative agency Mother, to support our mission to end the role of industrial meat in deforestation and climate change, and to challenge the companies who are responsible.

There’s a monster in my kitchen and I don't know what to do.

It has wicked glowing eyes and a snake-like tail too.

And claws so sharp and beastly they could tear a child in two.

It ripped our chalkboard off the wall and knocked over our stew.

And it growled at all the bones from our summer barbecue.

Perhaps this beast is here to feast?

But on what?

Or on…who?

There’s a monster in my kitchen and it’s filling me with fear!

Oh, monster in the shadows, please, tell me why you’re here?

There’s a monster in my forest and I don’t know what to do.

It turned my home to ash to instead grow something new.

Feed for chickens, pigs and cows to sell more meat to you.

As our forests disappeared, their evil empire grew.

They think they are unstoppable but we pray this isn’t true.

The real cost of what they’re doing, if only the whole world knew.

There’s a monster in my forest and it’s filling me with fear!

It’s putting us all in danger, to warn you is why I'm here.

Oh Jag-wah in my kitchen, now I do know what to do.

We’ll eat more plants and veggies and we’ll swap meat for bean stew or barbecue tofu!

I’ll assemble every warrior from here to Timbuktu.

Oh, Jag-wah in our kitchen, now we do know what to do.

We’ll stop these deadly monsters, so our planet can renew.

Well done! My nephew asked me why I don't eat animals, and I told him about a couple of reasons, but I didn't tell him about this one. What an awesome video to show him 🐆

[BananaBug]

The animatin in this is actually amazing by the way I Love it to bits

[namelessnavnls]

This ad took a twist I was not expecting and I am1000% okay with that! Wonderful message and beautifully deep animation.
Monsters are often only seen that way as a direct result of perspective.

[theTrigant]

Awesome animation. Great message. We have to share this to the last bits of the planet. Everyone should have to see this

Cartoon Saloon, the same animation studio that made The Secret of Kells, Song of the Sea and The Breadwinner, has given us another breathtaking masterpiece of animation magic while collaborating with one most important environmental organisations in the world. Can't wait for Wolfwalkers!

[AnitaKrajnc]

So well done. I'm proud of Greenpeace for its leadership among environmental groups for promoting plant based climate actions. Please lobby international development organizations like CARE, Oxfam and World Vision to stop promoting a shift away from plant based toward eating chickens, eggs, goats and cows through their partnership with animal feed private corporation Cargill, named the world company in the world.

Cartoon Saloon is such an amazing studio, they create so many overwhelmingly beautiful animations! I was so happy to find out the creator/director Tomm Moore was vegan and I’m glad he and the studio are putting work into plant-based activism! <3 if you guys like the style of this short be sure to watch their feature length films Song of the Sea, Secret of Kells, The Breadwinner and Wolfwalkers! :D

This gave me goosebumps... The best advert ive ever seen... what an impact it has... well done green peace...

[makaniistorm]

Glad they brought this commercial format back after they cancelled Iceland's commercial "There's an Orangutan in my bedroom"

[nathan]

what a beautiful but sad video that narrators voice gives me goosebumps

[Lisa-fnrn]

This is fantastic! Very sad what's happening to our planet. I support this message and will do everything I can to help. Creaters of this advert should be very proud x

[kaykayg]

I’m not a vegetarian, but I have to agree with lots of people that this is an amazing film

[KuoToa]

I like the way they made the people destroying the rainforest as unsavoury as possible

[blacksheepscrook]

So fun fact the soybean production for foods like tofu has been linked to massive deforestation. The only sustainable method of protein production will be found in the farming of shellfish such as oysters, crustaceans with regenerative properties like stone crabs and lentil production which has comparable protein to tofu with less demand on the soybean industry which supplies many other products including vegetable oils. Sustainable and regulated hunting efforts focused on consuming high protein elements of the animal(organs-heart, liver, kidneys, and lungs) and truly using all parts of the animal are also more answers, synthetic meat, and other options are more productive than everyone eat vegan and that will solve everything because there is no way that you will be able to convince the necessary percentage of the world population to go vegan or even vegetarian

[wingsofthunder]

These are the only ads that always get me in the feels.

[prismthehybird]

Man, that narrator is literally the voice actor of Death

[vanderlinojunior]

Amazing! Cartoon Saloon always wonderful!

[hammywoods]

This is such a beautiful animation I'd be lying if I said it didn't wanna make me vegan
