It's the same ad, repeated 3 times. Same line each time, visuals are virtually the same. I'm confused? There's no other way to visually play off the "crunchy/refreshing"? Only lakes/parks in the middle of urban settings? C'mon...surely there are other ways to illustrate this, and thus make the visual aspect of the campaign more compelling. Decent enough idea, but kind of lazy to do the same thing 3 times.
