Dr. Seuss writes BOOKS.

Because of Dr. Seuss and his evil books, my oldest son got low flow shower heads and toilets installed in our home, and raised money through recycling to get water to children in other countries. How dare Dr. Seuss for raising awareness for generations to come.

Trees are a renewable resource. As long as trees are planted to replace the ones used there is not that much of an issue. The rise in bio-mass plants, using wind and water energy are other ways to help the environment.
Things like oil are not renewable and should be more of the focus if we're talking about the planet.
The lesson of the Lorax is still a good one tho. Children would understand trees better than oil or coal. More people should care about the planet.

In the book, it's from chopping down ALL the trees, and society has become a wasteland. This movie sucked

Irony?
No there is no irony in the books.

The Lorax was a simple story explaining that if you simply destroy something in nature without giving back you ruin the whole ecology. The book makes it very clear that with the cutting of the trees and the dumping of gunk in the streams, that it resulted in nothing to eat, nothing to drink and no where to live.
For the sake of story telling, the Lorax appeared when the first tree we cut down as if the forest could sense it was in peril.

As for the LotR ...
Tolkien did not get angsty about the tree getting cut down. The Ents were tree herders (they cultivated the forsests) and were rather indiffrent to what was going on around them.
The movie was pretty spot on in its protrayal of them.
What angered the Ents was the total desolation that was being done to the forests and it was only made worse by the fact that Suraman, a Wizard that once was good, often visting and aiding the Ents, was behind the carnage.

BOTH books and authors stress the dangers of over consumption of a naturaul resource, not its responsable use (as seen prior to the Once-ler or how the Hobbits and Elves lived).

Actually, My copy of The Lorax is written on recycled paper, as stated on the cover because of topic (or, because the Lorax liked it this way or something)

This has already been said, but the Lorax was written as a story of the dangers of becoming too greedy and taking too much without thinking of the consequences not necessarily to be against chopping down all trees.

Im in agreement, The new lorax tried to kill some skinny kid over one tree accompanied with highpitched "singing fish" up in your face.

Dadadaaaaa....*Bangs head across desk*.
