Fred Rogers was an international celebrity. He was a pioneer in
children's television, an advocate for families, and a multimedia
artist and performer. He wrote the television scripts and music,
performed puppetry, sang, hosted, and directed Mister Rogers'
Neighborhood for more than thirty years. In his almost nine-hundred
episodes, Rogers pursued dramatic topics: divorce, death, war,
sibling rivalry, disabilities, racism. Rogers' direct, slow,
gentle, and empathic approach is supported by his superior
emotional strength, his intellectual and creative courage, and his
joyful spiritual confidence. The Green Mister Rogers:
Environmentalism in "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" centers on the
show's environmentalism, primarily expressed through his themed
week "Caring for the Environment," produced in 1990 in coordination
with the twentieth anniversary of Earth Day. Unfolding against a
trash catastrophe in the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, Rogers
advances an environmentalism for children that secures children in
their family homes while extending their perspective to faraway
places, from the local recycling center to Florida's coral reef.
Rogers depicts animal wisdom and uses puppets to voice anxiety and
hope and shows an interconnected world where each part of creation
is valued, and love is circulated in networks of care. Ultimately,
Rogers cultivates a practical wisdom that provides a way for
children to confront the environmental crisis through action and
hope and, in doing so, develop into adults who possess greater care
for the environment and a capacious imagination for solving the
ecological problems we face.
