FernGully: The Last Rainforest  (1992)

The young fairy Crysta lives in FernGully, a spectacular Amazon rainforest filled with magic and adventure.  But danger awaits in the form of a menacing logging company and the evil spirit Hexxus, voiced by Tim Curry.  Crysta must save her home with the aid of forest creatures, including a bat named Batty—voiced by Robin Williams—the Beetle Boys, and a young logger.  This beautifully animated environmental adventure is a wonderful way to celebrate Earth Day with your family.
