Has anyone read the lorax by dr. seuss?

In the Lorax, the Onceler represents people who use the Earth's resources for their personal gain, without trying to replenish anything and with utter disregard for our planet's welfare. The word the Lorax left, "Useless," shows what can happen to our world when everything is gone. It will be useless, not to mention the fact that we will all suffer for it.
