The environmental message of WALL-E

So is it a movie about cute little robots falling in love, or does it have a deeper political and environmental message? I think like most children's shows these days, there's always a little something thrown in there for the parents as well, while at the same time, trying to instill a little humanity in our next generation.

WALL*E is the newest Pixar creation that centers around a small trash-collecting robot who is the last of his kind, stuck in an infinite quest to clean up an abandoned, trash-riddled Earth all by himself. The Earth's situation is hopeless, and has become a wasteland of garbage, but that's not the main storyline of the movie. He soon meets a new robot named EVE, and the love-affair (or more accurately, the chase) begins. The underlying message of this gorgeous film may be lost on most children, but we hope it doesn't become lost on the parents who watch it with their children.
