Mix the dark mood of Logan's Run with the robot from Wall-E and you have my favorite eco-themed movie, Silent Running. Bruce Dern is the keeper of the last forest, which is on a space ship. Helped by three little robots, he will do anything to keep his trees alive.
The quality may not hold up to newer films, but the message is as poignant as ever. And I'm a sucker for cute little robots.
Thank you for these beautiful and thought provoking quotes.
David, if you know of other elephants that you believe are in worse circumstances, please help us help them. Report them to the USDA, give your information to activist organizations such as In Defense of Animals or PETA, raise awareness.
Tina and Jewel will be well cared for on their trip and certainly in their new home. They are traveling with one of the best groups who will make the elephants' comfort their highest priority.
No longer will they be riding a thousand miles or more in a truck that is too small for them only to do stunts for 5 minutes at a time for a day or two, only to get back in the truck and ride a thousand or more miles home again.
I agree with Olivia, please learn more about sanctuaries and elephant welfare. We need passionate voices such as yours to help Queenie and more like her.
