Authentic Animated STAR TREK PSA - Keep America Beautiful

Authentic Animated STAR TREK Public Service Announcement for "Keep America Beautiful" campaign - - Advertising Contributed for the Public Good." This video comes from a 16mm film that likely dates from 1975 or 1976. This television spot was created by Filmation Associates in their facility located on Shermain Way, just outside Hollywood. PSAs were pioneered by Filmation and they made their debut in conjunction with their Hardy Boys series in 1969. PSAa didn't become a regular epilogue element until 1972 as part of Filmation's Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids series. Filmation was the first studio to add a moral in the form of an epilogue at the end of animated television episodes.

@altha2008 Since "now" to them is the 23rd century, your factoid misses the point.

[wwsvs]

this one I don't remember seeing.. but I seem to remember another one.. maybe for scouts?

[altha2008]

they do not have the point now, thousands of little object eft over from space ships are floating around the earth, can cause damage to ships when they hit it

Thanks, boradis. Re: The more you know! ;-)

Then I refuse to go out there till I can outrun it with a warp 7 engine, at 656 x Speed of Light .

No way, do I want to have to wash all that "alien matter" off my ship!

Euwww! (quoting Klingons, bereft of all honor)

[YalanaCotu]

"Alien matter"... ???!

Kirk: Mr... Scott, prepare... to... beam that - 'stuff' - on board the Klingon vessel, just before they go into warp."

Scotty (smirking to self): Ay, an they thought them wee beasties was a might annoyin...

moments later:

Klingons: Euwww!!! Alien Matter!!! (So grossed, that ALL honor is lost!)

Klingon Captain Koloth: K-I-R-R-R-K!!! YOU REALLY ARE A JERK!!!!!

[boradis]

Moral: Unless we start pointing out pollution, it'll start tearing around the galaxy at 216 times the speed of light. The more you know!
