Do The Green Thing WWF Earth Hour poster: 50 Shades of Green
On that date the environmental campaigners are encouraging people to switch their lights off from 20:30 in support of future sustainability, with The Drum running each poster on the morning of its release.
The universal symbol for recycling and last year's must-read book inspired Pentagram designer Angus Hyland to create this poster aimed at encouraging people to recycle.
“Green is a shorthand for the environment - but for some reason graphically we tend to treat it as a block colour, ignoring all the variety that occurs in nature," said Hyland. "So I decided to redraw the recycling symbol using as many different shades of green as possible, highlighting the many different ways to save the planet. As an added bonus, it gave me a nice pun for the title.”
