Challenge
Climate change is effecting humanity around the world, and people need to be united to strive for change.
Solution
The Verses for Change campaign is speaking to creatives in highly populated, urban areas. Using Henry Thoreau’s poem, “Epitaph On The World,” we urge them to use their creative talents to take action. We establish a connection between the impact of these efforts by creating a typographic design for the posters where the forms of the letters interact with the hand painted fire and flooding.

A Creative Climate Event
The posters will redirect you to the Typocircle site where you can buy a ticket for their Verses for Change event and enter the Climate Design x Writing Competition to help spread awareness. You’ll be able to hear from designers and writers about how we can harness creativity to save the earth, and the winners of the Climate Design x Writing Competition will be announced.
