Actually, emotions is one thing animals do have (often the way they’re expressed is different from the way the same emotion is expressed by a human being; hence – we can’t emotionally read some of the stuff, that’s why we often anthropomorphise animals in art, etc.), it’s sometimes missing in humans, though. Oh, and… never heard of animals being depressed? You haven’t done your research then – http://www.biopsychiatry.com/animals.htm

However, if you mean that the anthropomorphisation of animals in the video is a bit too sentimental, I do agree with you. It seems manipulative. I don’t see a link between climate and depression. With the “if you give up, they give up” line left out it’d make a nice subtext of homo sapiens unnaturaly performing global suicide. But now it’s just sentimental…

One way or another it does make a point.
Yet I find the bare statistics much more scarier and disturbing.
