People's heedlessness has made them guilty of leaving a destructive trail of waste.
Just in case, people are still confused.
Our insatiable desire - consumerism - leads to after-effects that are simply too overwhelming.
Our global organizations and leaders have utterly failed in protecting our natural treasures. But there's not much time for despair.
If things don't improve then we might be next on the list of extinct species soon.
Hashtag activism gets us nowhere, really.
Through these fake posters, Brandalism aims to challenge the role advertising plays in promoting unsustainable consumerism.
Joe Elan from Brandalism reportedly said that these major corporate entities are promoting themselves as part of the solution when in reality they are part of the environmental problem.
