Moen: #UnlockWaterForAll

Moen Print Ad - #UnlockWaterForAll

Over the last few years, Moen has established its positioning as the hero for beautiful water. As the #1 consumer faucet brand in North America, Moen sees 1.5 trillion gallons of water flow through its products annually. Moen has celebrated water as an incredible force of nature that’s often overlooked. The reality is, water continues to be taken for granted, even during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Regular handwashing with soap and water is critical to preventing the spread of germs to others, yet 15 million Americans are experiencing water shutoffs, due to the inability to pay. This issue has a disproportionate impact on cities with higher poverty and unemployment rates. In fact, nearly 40% of the U.S. population are vulnerable to shutoffs. As the hero for water, Moen believes that no one should have their water turned off during this historic pandemic. The next coronavirus relief package is under negotiation and will likely go to vote in July. Now is the time to act.

Moen is calling on the public to demand that Congress enforce the human right of water by placing a national moratorium on water shutoffs during the pandemic. In a new campaign created by Havas Chicago, #UnlockWaterForAll, Moen is encouraging people to send a letter to Congress at FoodAndWaterAction.org, urging them to issue a national moratorium on water shutoffs during this time.

Tim Hortons: Come as You Are

Tim Hortons is encouraging Canadians to ‘Come as You Are’ in their latest campaign. Created in partnership with Tim Hortons agency of record, Zulu Alpha Kilo, features Canadians emerging from quarantine and returning to Tim Hortons in all their stay-at-home glory. From DIY haircuts and scruffy beards to the more poignant moments of people reconnecting with one another, the tone lends a subtle smile to the realities of living through self-isolation together as a country.

“Our intent was to authentically capture this moment in Canadians’ lives. COVID restrictions actually helped reinforce those decisions. The talent who appeared physically close had to have isolated together. Even the wardrobe had to be the talents’ own clothes. From the director to the artist who wrote the music, it was a Canadian production and the result is a piece that feels true to Tims,” said Wain Choi, Executive Creative Director at Zulu Alpha Kilo.

UNESCO: The Next Normal

After 1945, UNESCO was born of one conviction: the most serious crisis in our history could give birth to a better, more united humanity. This idea is more topical than ever after the global coronavirus crisis, which called into question our priorities, our ways of life and the very functioning of our society. At the same time, new hopes and forms of solidarity were born. But as the world starts to emerge from the pandemic, there is a great temptation to simply forget and return to our former lives: back to normal. We know too well it could cause a future health, economic and social crisis.

It’s the right moment for UNESCO to raise the alarm with a campaign urging us not to forget the lessons learned. The 2.20-minute film doesn’t need complex arguments to do that: just facts. Facts about the world before and during the epidemic. Put together, they lead us to an unsettling conclusion: our “normal” world wasn’t normal at all and we better use this moment to change it. This is the objective of UNESCO. To encourage action and to mobilize people all over the world to question what should be normal and what the world of tomorrow could look like.

Pride Month: Remember the Rainbow

For Pride Month, Huskies saw an opportunity to align the mnemonic for remembering the rainbow with its international symbolic meaning – respect and equality. The project reinvents the old mnemonic about the rainbow colours. The well-known ‘Roy G Biv’ or ‘Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain’ (which hasn’t been updated since its invention in 1869) has been given a modern transformation with a new positive message: “Respect Others. You Grow By Including Variety”. The campaign is a collaborative effort between teachers and schools and the idea behind it is to cultivate tolerance, open-mindedness and respect among young children.

Beeline: Bee In Touch

Beeline, a Russian telecommunication company, together with Starcom and Leo Burnett Moscow created a communication service to save bees.
According to the UN reports, insect pollination of plants is an example of an ideal connection. Up to 2/3 of crops that feed the World depend on this essential ecosystem service. But every year, this connection is getting weaker. One of the main reasons is pesticides. To protect their crops from vermin, farmers treat fields with toxic chemicals and unintentionally harm the bees – those, who provide pollination – vital for their plants. Farmers don’t know how many apiaries surround their fields and beekeepers don’t know when and where the farmer will start the next pesticide spraying. Since the problem is the lack of communication, it should be fixed by those who specialize in it.

Beeline, one of the largest telecom companies in Russia, in cooperation with Leo Burnett Moscow and Starcom has developed a free communication service Bee In Touch. Together with experts in farming and beekeeping, they have developed a simple and user-friendly solution. Now all a farmer planning to treat crops has to do, is to just push one phone button. A special algorithm provided with massive data about fields and apiaries geolocation will evaluate the number of apiaries in danger and send a notification to their owners.

Extensive public dialogue around our campaign attracted the attention of the government and the main agricultural regions of the country. So, the long-awaited first version of the federal beekeeping law was finally proposed to the Parliament. Now it includes new communication standards between beekeepers and farmers. Bee In Touch platform is considered to be a part of the process. And since the extinction of bees is a challenge not only for our country, we will create a free guide, which includes our service source code to help other countries to protect their bees in the future.
