WWF Tsunami Print Ad Attacks New York 9/11

The WWF Brazil is surely going to raise some eyebrows with their newest print ad campaign titled "Tsunami". I will admit the idea is actually very good, but considering the nature of both events this might not go over to well here in North America. I agree that our planet should be protected I'm just not so sure that this was the best way to advertise it.

The tsunami killed 100 times more people than 9/11.
The planet is brutally powerful. Respect it. Preserve it. www.wwf.org
