Safineia, the most environmentally-friendly town among the outdoors with extensive amount of trees and waterfalls. In Safineia we value the importance of preserving and recycling. The Lorax is a great representation of this because he loves nature and is known as “one with the trees”.

The Lorax is a portrayal of our city because he shows individualism by not conforming to others’
