  • this contest looks more like the bad idea contest.

  • Sorry, but this was really bad, especially compared with the rest of the entries. I watched maybe 30 of them and of them I'd say this is in the bottom 5.

  • One of the most idiotic ad I ever seen. First, no one will bother to take note of the website to sign the petition when the entire audio is filled with stupid copy. Secondly, the video is nothing but a childish prank. Poor art direction. Weak copy. And worst, talentless talents!!! What a disgrace!

  • it was effective. discussion ends. creative wanking is best done alone in the dark.

  • I agree! This ad is brilliant because it doesn't just make you feel better about a product you already buy, or put an idea in your head to go out and buy it, which you may or may not do depending on a host of other factors. This ad is every marketer's dream: it makes you do what it tells you to do and instantly so. Imagine a McDonald's ad for a BigMac that made 99% of those who saw it go out and buy one, instantly. It'd be an ad agency's dream come true.

  • Cool video although I don't think in this instance of "Man Vs. Nature", humans will win - climate change is the Earth telling us "had enuff now, thx, cya."

  • very good job adeline.

  • Don't idiot from comments! You work is awesome!!! Love it. So simple and genius.

  • man made global warming is a load of BS

  • Dear o Dear...

  • Wow. Don't listen to them. The reason everyone hated this is becuase you all thought it was goingt o be somthing outrageous but the thing is half the people wont go buy a new car to save the world or not drive the car this video was greta because it was so simple everyone can do it.

  • I wish I could remove the +1 viewer caused by my clicking and watching this crap. And the reason this piece won is:

    A) Judges were blind.

    B) Judges were paid.

    C) Judges got laid.

    D) Judges got diarrhea and had to go. Fast.
