CANCELLED: The Lorax: Transcending the Call from Environmentalism to Activism
Host: Rachael Bateman, rebateman@csmd.edu
Join Professor Rachael Bateman in a discussion about Dr. Seuss' book, The Lorax. This book emphasizes “environmental stewardship and the consequences of exploitation … highlighting deforestation, greenhouse gases, plastic pollution, corporate greed, and the need for collective action.”
The book serves as a reminder—one that is desperately needed right now—to speak up against injustice and oppression, and to work to make change. Though The Lorax may be a children's book and movie, this pertinent and powerful message is one to carry on in our adult lives.
