Dr. Seuss' The Lorax Trailer

the write up from iwatchstuff.com is pretty cheeky:
"Remember those blissful days of childhood, when school paper drives and in-class showings of Fern Gully had us thinking that maybe deforestation might be the most worrisome result of reckless corporate greed? Man, we were sure off on that one. It's been ages since anyone reminded me to fret about how we are tearing down the rain forests, and will probably soon die when we can't afford entry into the rich people's luxury oxygen domes. So what better parable to reacquaint ourselves with this harsh http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifreality than The Lorax, Dr. Seuss's timeless story about a lone, mustached voice of dissent against an increasingly violent assault on nature?"
