IKEA Accidental Environmentalists - a better world starts at home (2019) :60 (The Netherlands)

IKEA Accidental Environmentalists - a better world starts at home (2019) :60 (The Netherlands)

IKEA has committed to using only renewable and recycled materials in its products by 2030, sourcing only recycled or renewable wood by 2020 and producing as much renewable energy as it consumes by 2020. This means that anyone who shops there now becomes an Accidental Environmentalists. Congratulations, punter! 


 

I do like this idea, take the message and cartoonify it. Exaggerate it. And having the press barge down the door to our dear black metal fan's black kitchen is pretty silly. 


Anomaly developed IKEA’s new global sustainability platform ‘A Better World Starts at Home’ launching with a suite of assets across TVC, social, events, in-store and internal communication. In every touchpoint, the campaign celebrates the small changes that can make a big difference to people’s homes and to the world. 

With their water-saving taps, kitchens made from recycled materials and all cotton products sourced sustainably, millions of IKEA customers are already doing good without even realising it or even waking from their couch-naps.

 


The campaign has already drawn some attention, with Christiana Figueres, Former Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) tweeting: 

“We have the solutions, let’s figure out how to apply & scale them to address some of the world’s biggest challenges. What IKEA does influence’s the way people think.”
