Is that supposed to be a piece of news the italian public urgently needs to hear (and act on)?
Totally irrelevant ad.

This is a clever ad. Very good piece.

Actually, the pandas are flourishing there, with new pandas born due to conservation. It's not the trees.

"Bowww Wowww"

That's what I call a great ad.

Wowwww!
Love it!

I've seen so many WWF ads that tweak the panda logo . . it's nothing new.

regarding...
... that the panda is nowadays a national emblem in china,
that poaching of the giant panda is in china under death penalty
and that the chinese government ist working tightly together with the wwf ...
i highly doubt that the wwf even knows that this ad exists.

btw: playing with the panda-logo is pretty old

I don't get this comment. This is a local campaign, it's not chinese.

and?
ignoring the facts about the panda... do you think this ad has any relevance on the italian public?
think of a hole bunch of projects that the wwf is actually supporting. they might really need public awareness. and even better: a call for action.
this ad here is just made to impress on award shows and misses the demand of a social campaign.

Ad(dicted)

Nice to look at, but the call for action is missing. Ok, so deforestation is bad for pandas. What do I do now?

Art and concept are outstanding. Copy is poor and redundant. I don't need it to describe what I'm seeing. Instead it should say something like: Help pandas by stopping deforestation in China. This is a call to action, not an image description. If you are going to describe what I'm seeing then why bother creating a visual?
