Will Smith’s son JADEN says No to Plastic!

The ‘ After Earth’ star sends out a plea to kids everywhere to save Earth. 

As well as playing as portraying a real to reel like father-son drama and a high-paced action spectacle, M Night Shyamalan’s AFTER EARTH also carries a stark warning about mankind’s rapacious use of the planet’s resources, and Will Smith and son Jaden are keen to do their bit to promote environmentalism.

The rising teenage star Jaden has already adopted environmental consciousness in his life!! 

“In the household we recycle,” says Jaden Smith. “I compost all the food and put it in the ground to help the soil. And we just drink from glass bottles. We don’t use any plastic. We have solar power at our house. We try to do as much as we can.” 

On a wider level, too, ‘AFTER EARTH’s Jaden Smith is passionate about the planet and says that he feels a responsibility to speak out and encourage his generation. “I feel the world needs a voice right now,” he says. “It’s in a very dark place. The world could use a voice in music, movies. Everywhere I feel like kids don’t really care. But if we had somebody that was willing to say, ‘Hey, we need to do something about this,’ I feel we can actually change the world. If we don’t, he notes, the fiction on screen in AFTER EARTH could become a frightening reality.”
