I don't like it, but just me I find tryin to make a point using things like 9/11 is very disrespectful.

Not a good move in any context.

I don't think they should try to downplay what happened on 9/11, unless they want to make a lot of potential supporters angry.

I wouldn't really recommend that for a WWF commercial..
But that was intense. It would be alright for more of a like, warning type commercial. Kinda like the wild fire commercials.

I can't think of what I'm trying to say.

You cannot compare the two. Both are terrible tragedies. The tsunami was a force of nature that killed many, many people, but 9/11 was a brutal attack by man. Both are too terrible to put into words. Families and victims are still grieving over them. They shouldn't downplay that.

The truth is hard for people to swallow and whether they like it or not that is exactly what happened.
I think the"Respect it." part is a little over-board but overall the ad is very effective in getting it's point across.
To get your point across you don't compare disasters to daises. To get your point across you compare disasters to scars.
If they were posting this video in Europe, they might use something like the Pam Am bombing.
People won't respond to soft ads.
You want responses, you go hardcore.

But if you also want to lose supporters, you piss them off.

tHiS iS HORRiBlE O.O

yes i do. the war is pointless and the 9/11 is a past event. everyone always tell people to leave their past in the past. y cnt we do the same abt this subject?

Actually, it`s a really terrible commercial beyond the weak platform for comparison.
(Note: Just pointing out certain points, so don`t take offense)
(1)What qualifies 9/11 as one of the "worst tragedies of humanity?"
(2) While the usage of several planes attacking NY is an interesting way of illustrating the statistics, how does it underline the message of save the planet through environmental reform rather than fight the war on terror?
(3) This commercial does not give an understanding of what the effects of action or inaction may or may not be.
(4) Minimizing conflict and poverty is an essential step to environmental reform; there`s a reason that rapidly industrializing countries go through huge environmental problems. There`s a reason nations fight over water rights.
Weak advert, poorly conceived, and does not deliver any information beyond a direct comparison of the numbers.
It`s sensationalist and to some degree fear-mongering. I don`t think it`s effective, no matter how true the stats are.

althought i probably wouldnt agree with it if i was family with a victim of 911, the commerial does make sense, and i like it in a strange way.

I agree with dale102, but I'm glad that WWF didn't endorse it.

I dont think theyre trying to disrespect the events of 9/11.
I think its just trying to say how powerful natural forces really are ? idk.
Either way we should be respecting our planet

i dont like it, they should fing a better way to proof a point...did they even think about the families that lost loved ones on 9/11? i mean,yeah respect it but not like this. its just 100% wrong.

*find

yeah that was wrong....we had a Attack on 9/11 a TSUNAMI is just nature its self..we know ppl died but for the -nation- ppl stopped a second..to think for others an not. their selfs.

thats a stupid commercial... just not right.

wow...although that commercial was amazingly sicktastic...thats messed up

Is there any animals die in there? Now that's way more off-course than what they're should fight for. The Environment and species or mankind? Before mankind, there's already many kinds of animals had exist.
