Sadly i'll still be around when these events are happening, and my kids will mostly be graduatiing college experiencing this shyt! Would be good if mars had oxygen and food so we can leave earth and start on something new lol. We take things for granted, and don't know what the future will hold.

I condone them for taking advantage of such a touchy subject and making it almost profound in its apathy- especially since no one really knows if global warming is a serious threat. You can't deny its creativity and certainly shouldn't expect anything more out of such a superficial business. Good job, Diesel. Has the fashion industry really been one to be deep about anything?

If everyone is quit - pretending that everything is fine, nothing gets done. Any inteligent person understand that this is just another way to raise awareness. Yes, about Global Warming and about Diesel as brand. Looking at these pictures, I do not find it cool. Because of course you would not be cool about it once it happens. And Diesel know. And I think they have done great job. I think their advertisment is clever and it does talk to certain target market. Because they would not listen to - Be green, be nice. But they would listen to Be Cool! And be ready! ( it is coming, and coming soon, i we do not do anything about it!) I find Diesel advertising provokative, but why not?

Rather than illustrate the potential disaster of Global Warming, the campaign makes a parody out of it by depicting a world that’s already too far gone…so you might as well look fashionable right? If the goal is to inform consumers about Global Warming ….the campaign has failed. In fact, it’s kind of ironic that this “environmentally conscious” brand is named after a petroleum product.
