Universal Conservation Authority

An episode of the series takes place in a tightly controlled future society weathering the aftermath of global ecological collapse. Plotwise, the episode is a rather direct rip of "Brave New World," crossed with Philip Jose Farmer's "Dayworld" novels. The unpleasant regime in power is called the Universal Conservation Authority. Its logo appears several times — a golden Mobius strip ribbon with two extra twists, folded into the shape of a concave-sided triangle. It is very likely meant to be reminiscent of the familiar three-arrows-in-a-triangle "recyclable" logo, in keeping with the episodes's theme. The symbol is shown on a white flag in a propaganda broadcast.
