CONCEPT
Creative Direction
TASK
Elevate awareness and urgency regarding climate change by captivating metropolitan audiences.
IDEA
Unlike traditional environmental campaigns that emphasize the importance of caring for the planet, the strategy behind “The Planet Will Be Fine” shifts the focus to the survival of human civilization, highlighting the direct impact of climate change on our lives. ​
Targeting urban populations in major global cities, the campaign aims to create a sense of urgency and motivate individuals to demand stronger climate action.
The video contrasts the "The Planet Will Be Fine" message with haunting, post-apocalyptic scenes of cities overtaken by nature. The visuals underscore the stark difference between flourishing greenery and the decaying remnants of human civilization, emphasizing that while nature endures, humanity’s future hangs in the balance. Designed to resonate with audiences in global cities, the campaign makes the potential consequences of inaction deeply personal.

Set to Radiohead’s 'No Surprises,' the music intensifies the sense of urgency with its bells and rhythmic ticking, creating a striking juxtaposition between nature’s calm recovery and human devastation. This emotional contrast amplifies the campaign’s core message: while the Earth will recover, our survival depends on immediate, collective action.
The billboards are placed near iconic city landmarks, showcasing a real-time view of the area, but overlaid with a post-apocalyptic twist where nature has prevailed.
This mix of the familiar and unsettling is designed to make people pause and reflect on the potential future if climate change is ignored. The contrast drives home the message, pushing viewers to take action before it’s too late.
VR glasses are stationed in bustling megacities with heavy traffic and iconic landmarks, offering a glimpse of these sites in a post-apocalyptic, nature-reclaimed future.
