 I believe Princess Anna's destruction of the dam was very irresponsible, as she did not perform an environmental impact study. Despite the fact that the dam was considered as harmful before destruction, there might be rare species living in the lake behind the damn. The spoils from the construction of Channel Tunnels has now formed a country park, with nationally rare plant species [(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samphire_Hoe_Country_Park)]. This could be the case for the lake behind the damn as well. Northuldra might have adapted their lifestyle to take advantage of the lake. A public consultation should have been conducted.  I believe Princess Anna's destruction of the dam was very irresponsible, as she did not perform an environmental impact study.

-Finally the dam did not have to be destroyed immediately. The water-level could be gradually lowered. The catastrophic impact of dam destruction is also shown in the film. Queen Elsa had to use magical power to divert the water from the dam. Dams are considered "installations containing dangerous forces" under International humanitarian law due to the massive impact of a possible destruction on the civilian population and the environment [(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dam_failure)]. If the flooding from the dam destroyed Arendelle, Princess Anna would have committed war crime against her own people. Therefore I believe Princess Anna needs to go to a university to study Civil Engineering+Finally the dam did not have to be destroyed immediately. The water-level could be gradually lowered.

I think it is a metaphor of a political leader leading the effort of shoring up the levees, in the face of an imminent flooding.

 +Finally Queen Elsa abdicated to live in the Enchanted Forest. I believe it is in reference of King Edward VIII, who later became Duke of Windsor after his abdication [(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_VIII)]. I do not think abdication was necessary for Queen Elsa. She could have ruled over both Enchanted Forest by using Personal Union [(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_union#United_Kingdom)], much like the British monarch. She is obviously not very good at statecraft. I therefore think that the now abdicated Queen Elsa needs to study Politics.

 +Overall, I think Frozen 2 is a very educational film. It has so many metaphors and hidden messages. It is good for teaching children about politics and environmentalism
