Please Save My Earth (Japanese: ぼくの地球を守って, Hepburn: Boku no Chikyū o Mamotte) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Saki Hiwatari. It was published by Hakusensha from December 1986 to May 1994 in the magazine Hana to Yume and collected in 21 tankōbon volumes. It is about six young people and a seven-year-old boy who share common dreams about their past lives as alien scientists who observed the Earth from the Moon.

The series was adapted as a six-part original video animation (OVA) in 1993. A sequel manga, Embraced by the Moonlight, was serialized in the bimonthly Hana to Yume as well as the special edition magazine, Hana to Yume Plus. It has since been followed by I Sing with the Earth. Both the anime OVA and manga are licensed for distribution in North America by Viz Media.

By May 2006, Please Save My Earth had over 15 million copies in circulation.
