Throughout the film, we see the impact that technology has on humans. In recent years we have had an impressive advance with robots, and humans' dependence on technology has also increased. However, the question remains, is this a positive development or a negative? An article states, “Reliance on technology too much might result in a decline in critical thinking and self-reliance…technology can result in social isolation and addiction.” (42) This article highlights the negative effects technology has however, in WALL-E we hear, “ Everything you need to be happy, your day is very important to us…please remain stationary a service bot will be here to assist you.”(41:00). Although technology can be helpful for tasks like research, communication, extensive technology is not always good. The director of WALL-E incorporated the consequences of technology in the film, he said, “ We were watching it happened with the phone… technology tends to win out, like you know technology is not good for my eyesight to be staring it all day, but [you] need to click on one more headlight, it's like seduction.”(0:54) This film provides a vision of what is happening with advanced technology. 

Although WALL-E has minimal dialog, they do an adequate job of getting the message across. One article states, “ For us, WALL-E presents the most powerful environmental statement made by Disney or Pixar studios; we must protect the earth and its resources because leaving it behind cannot effectively preserve humankind.”( Heumann, and Murray). Wall-E goes beyond the science fiction genre by presenting a futuristic vision that, in addition to exploring the advances of technology, also plans on the ethical decisions that humans must make to avoid the destruction of the planet in the future. The film is a call to attention to the responsibility that each one of us has in the protection of our planet and the ethical use of technology. As humans we consume what is given to us for example an iPhone, and new clothes that are trending, but where is everything we no longer need going? Showing WALL-E  to a younger audience will have a significant impact. The younger generation will learn about the neglect of our earth and how too much technology can also be very damaging, not only to humans but also to our planet.
