Miyazaki's Philosophy of Nature
Miyazaki's philosophy is heavily influenced by Shintoism, and again, by Taoism from China. He believes that we should protect nature for its intrinsic value and the spiritual value. But he also knows, if you look at Totoro, there's a lot of agricultural landscapes existing side by side with still semi-natural slash natural in the forest. So I think he likes somewhere on that spectrum.
