Who says the United Nations never does anything for you? Here it’s selected more than 900 do-gooder advertisements that "address sustainability issues" (from an original set of 40,000) and put them into a searchable database divided into categories like "disaster reduction," "education & awareness," and that box-office favorite: "production patterns."
Browse your heart out:
- Under "Human, Labour & Social Rights," Wal-Mart employees praise their employer for coming to LA.
- Under "Climate Change & Atmosphere," downstate behemoth Archer Daniels Midland seductively superimposes gas pumps on corn plants.
- And the Evangelical Environmental Network asks (and answers) the question "What Would Jesus Drive?"
