911 - It's an emergency!

Hi guys,

today I let you finish your test very quickly and then we continued the lesson with a new topic:

"I'm an EMT"

Here is the document we started to comment on:

Here is what you said:

The document is a poster. It's a campaign for WWF. It's an ironic allegory of the planet and people.

The scene takes place in a lost countryside. It's almost at night as the sun is setting. There is only one house in the background. It looks haunted and dilapidated.

There is a car in the field. There has been an accident. The car skidded out of the road. There is a person and they need help.

----------------------------------------

The goal of the campaign is to make people react. It is a warning to protect the planet against climate change. The temperatures are rising; the planet is heating up and we are doing nothing like the EMTs in the picture.

Instead of rescuing the driver, they are eating / urinating / calling someone...! Like us, instead of acting against climate change, we are waiting for the catastrophe.
