Not many people are aware of the environmental damage caused by mining, which is why the 'No to Mining In Palawan' campaign by Philippine-based agency DM9JaymeSyfu produced a series of ads about this important issue.
Simple but powerful, these prints show the image of animals with an open and bloody wounds on their backs. The agency used a wide range of animals -- from whales to mouse deer -- to illustrate how the inadequate exploitation of the land seriously harms all wild creatures. The mammals appear on the center of a black and looming background, which helps to focus viewers' attention directly on the animals.
