Oh, it's one of these "childhood ruined" days.
There's multiple ways to take that

No, it's a day to marvel at the implementation of the core tenets of saving resources: Reduce, reuse, recycle.
This meme uses the second tenet to its fullest. Just imagine how much energy and resourves would need to be spent to create a mature movie as popular as this children's cartoon. You could use the third tenet, recycling, to create the mature movie by editing Disney's "Lion King" into one but that would still require significantly more resources than just using the second tenet.
The tenets are in order of impact from greatest to least. They could have reduced by not making this.
Sure, though the resource saving ∆ is quite small when adhering to tenet 1 instead of 2. After all, it takes hardly any energy to send a few kibibytes of data across the internet. Even all memes combined use a relatively low amount of energy and storage, since the vast majority of internet traffic is videos and streaming:

A significantly - in the order of thousands - more efficient way to reduce would be by installing an ad blocker. It prevents web pages from loading several megabytes of tracking JavaScripts and you don't lose any functionality.
