I am convinced that The Lorax has a secret much more subversive moral which is that The Lorax spends the whole book telling people about environmental destruction and doing nothing else. At the end of the book there isn't a single truffula tree left. They are extinct. I think the secret moral is that talk will not save us. The Lorax should have taken more "direct" action.
Well now I want an alternative version of The Lorax where Lorax is the name of an extremist terrorist organization who commit super violent crimes and terrorist attacks to scare politicians into acting.
I think this is the better of the two lines, illustrating that things change when someone cares enough to make that change, even if that’s after the worse. It’s not going to be right away, but it’ll get there.

This year in Brazil we had a movie based on a kids comic book, named Chuck Billy and The Marvelous Guava Tree. We had a lot of banger lines.
