the lorax is a children's book written by dr. seuss and published in 1971. it chronicles the plight of the environment and the lorax, the titular character, who "speaks for the trees" and confronts the once-ler, a business magnate who causes environmental destruction. just like most dr. seuss works, most of the creatures mentioned are original to the book.
the story is commonly recognized as a fable concerning the danger of greed causing human destruction of the natural environment, using the literary element of personification to create relatable characters for industry (as the once-ler), the environment (being the truffula trees) and environmental activism (as the lorax). the story encourages personal care and involvement in making the situation better: a quote from the lorax states, "unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. it's not."
it was dr. seuss's personal favorite of his books. he was able to create an engaging story addressing industrial/economic and environmental issues. dr. seuss stated,"the lorax came out of me being angry. the ecology books i'd read were dull...in the lorax i was out to attack what i think are evil things and let the chips fall where they might."
a boy living in a polluted area wanders down the street of the lifted lorax and visits a strange, reclusive man known as the once-ler. the boy pays the once-ler fifteen cents, a nail, and the shell of a great-great-great-grandfather snail to hear the story of how the lorax was lifted away.
the once-ler tells the boy that many years ago, he arrived in a beautiful valley containing a forest of truffula trees and a range of animals. having long searched for such a tree as the truffula, he cut one down and used its foliage to knit an incredibly versatile garment known as the thneed. a strange creature known as the lorax emerged from the tree's stump and voiced his disapproval of both the tree's sacrifice and the thneed itself.
as time passed, the area became choked with pollution, and the lorax was forced to send the animals away to find more hospitable habitats. the once-ler was unrepentant and told the lorax that he would continue "biggering" his operations, but at that moment, one of his machines felled the last truffula tree. without raw materials, the factory closed down and the once-ler's relatives left him. the lorax sadly lifted himself into the air and disappeared through a hole in the smog, leaving behind a stone platform engraved with the word "unless." the distraught once-ler punished himself with years of self-imposed exile, pondering the lorax's message.
after finishing his story, the once-ler realizes out loud what the lorax meant: unless somebody cares, the situation will not improve. he then gives the boy the last truffula seed and urges him to grow a forest from it, hoping that the lorax and the animals will return.
doctor ivo "eggman" robotnik is a fictional character and the primary antagonist of sega's sonic the hedgehog franchise. eggman was created and designed by naoto ohshima as part of many design choices for sega's new mascot. after the creation of sonic the hedgehog, ohshima chose to use his previous egg-shaped character to create the antagonist of the 1991 video game sonic the hedgehog, making him the arch-nemesis of the series' eponymous main character.
in the main line of video games, eggman is a dastardly mad scientist who plans to conquer the world to build his own empire. while he has gone through several major and minor appearance changes throughout the series, his in-game designs retain several basic characteristics, such as his ovate body, red-black-yellow clothing, bald head, a onesie, pince-nez sunglasses, and large mustache. eggman commonly creates machines and robots, including a wide variety of badniks. notably in early games, he has also served as a recurring boss, appearing in almost every level piloting one of his created vehicles.
eggman has appeared in almost every sonic the hedgehog video game since his first appearance in the 1991 title sonic the hedgehog and is also a prominent character in other media, including comics, novels, and cartoons. he made his live-action cinematic debut in the 2020 film adaptation, portrayed by jim carrey. eggman has been well-received by critics and is one of the most popular and recognizable villains in gaming history.
