THEME FOR EARTH DAY 2014=

CITIESAs the urban population grows and the effects of climate change

worsen, our cities have no choice but to evolve. More than half of the world’s current population lives in cities.

By 2050 the UN estimates that will have increased to 75%.There will be 3 BILLION MORE PEOPLE vying for the same limited

space…

Current models for housing, food, education, transportation, energy and infrastructure will need to be re-imagined to sustain such large numbers of residents and allow them to thrive..

YEAH BUT WHAT CAN WE DO?

As an industry, nobody knows brands and how to SHIFT BEHAVIORS better than we do: we’re the experts in taking complex business problems and applying our creativity to influence behavior change on a daily basis. That influence is incredibly powerful and has the potential to make a serious impact on not only our clients’ businesses but also to REIMAGINE THE WAY WE LIVE WORK AND PLAY IN THE CITY WE CALL HOME

So what’s getting in our way?

A LOT!
