* TheCoconutEffect: When the rock hits one side of the Once-ler's bed before it goes over the waterfall, there is a "sproing" sound as if tension has been released (like a diving board) -- but there was never any tension in the bed -- the rock simply landed on the opposite side, sending him off as if it was a seesaw.

* WickedWastefulness: Unlike the original book, this adaptation makes it clear that the Once-ler doesn't ''have'' to cut down whole Truffula trees to make Thneeds - -- he only needs to pluck the tufts that grow on them, which will grow back in time. He even promises to do exactly this when the Lorax calls him out on it, only to be manipulated by his family into breaking the promise so they can speed up production. The Once-ler promptly goes JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope, and only realises the damage he's caused when the last Truffula tree falls.

Added DiffLines:
* EcocidalAntagonist: The film has two examples, the first being the Once-ler who zigzags the trope. While he's portrayed sympathetically and is not as overtly evil as the film's main villain, but was recklessly selfish in the past, as shown during his VillainSong, "How Bad Can I Be?", that he more or less embraced this trope and makes it clear that he cares more about profits than the well-being of the forest. The second one is Mr. O'Hare, who is the main BigBad and plays the trope completely straight. Furthermore, O'Hare does business by making everyone [[PayingForAir pay for artificial air]] instead of getting air from the trees for free.
