STAR TREK Animated PSA


This is a genuine YouTube rarity: a Star Trek public service announcement produced by Filmation Studios for the Keep America Beautiful anti-pollution campaign, from the early 1970s. Featuring the voices of William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy and George Takei.

I remember seeing this when I was a kid!

    Wow. Cool.

    That's a damned good show, too.

    I've gotta say, much as I love ST:TAS, that was rather... lackluster.

    "People finally got the point" :D

    Hey, there's a really weird alien sitting next to Sulu!

    Apparently there was also an animated Star Trek anti-drug PSA; I've never seen it, but I've heard the audio track.

    As we later learned from Futurama, though, once we stop producing garbage, we won't have anything to use as a weapon against the older garbage that will come back to kill us all. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Big_Piece_of_Garbage)

    I vaguely remember this PSA. I might have been only 7 or 8 when it was broadcast but I hung on every word of anything Star Trek so I would have watched it if it was on. Thanks for posting this.
