Chief Earth Officers — The Brief 2023

The brief

Cannes Lions' open creative brief — The Brief #3 — partnered with New Zero World to address the climate crisis through storytelling. The submission positioned climate communication as a chain of small, repeatable acts rather than one apocalyptic plea.

The craft

An entry built around the Chief Earth Officer device — turning every leader, employee and citizen into a named role in the climate response — and a system of recruitment posts, manifesto pages and visual identity carrying it. Selected as Global Finalist.
