| http://www.futerra.co.uk/revolution/leading_thinking Futerra, a London and New York-based communications agency that was started in 2001, focuses its work on corporate responsibility and sustainability. It has published a number of resources, available for free downloading from the web site above, that can be useful and perhaps provocative for those interested in communicating with the public about sustainability-related topics. These are graphics-rich documents that integrate the language of advertising and mass communications in approaching timely environmental topics. Among the resources available for download at this site are: Communicating Sustainability - “Futerra, in partnership with the UN Environment Programme, published Communicating Sustainability: How to produce effective public campaigns in September 2005. The guide showcases innovative campaigns from every continent which have succeeded in making people think or behave differently towards the environment. It has now been downloaded over 700,000 times from the UNEP website!” 10 Tips for Sustainability Communications - “This is Futerra’s bible. A postcard reminder of how to sell sustainability. Widely used and adopted by the UN’s Environment Programme and elsewhere.” |
