Every Earth Day (April 22), we celebrate how awesome our planet is and acknowledge the need to protect this fabulous third rock from the sun.
The theme for this year’s fete is Planet vs. Plastics, calling for a united fight to drastically reduce plastics (hopefully 60% by 2040). In honor of all of us channeling our inner Cady Herons and gearing up to take on the Plastics (“Mean Girls” joke), we’ve assembled a list of eight movies, some showcasing the stuff of fantastical extremes, that emphasize how important it is to take care of our home and can help plant the first seeds.

Because, once you get past the plot holes, implausible escapes and creative license with geological possibilities, it's … OK, yeah, no, you probably won't be able to see past all that for many of these movies. But the point remains: Treat Earth Day like your New Year's and make a resolution that's feasible for your lifestyle today.
