Although it’s probably only a matter of time before someone finds the original image that Shepard Fairey likely traced to create this new poster for the World Wildlife Foundation, it’s for a good cause so who cares right?—wait, so was, oh never mind. The “Vote Earth. Your Light Switch is Your Vote†is a campaign to raise awareness about Earth Hour, a global initiative urging the citizens of the world to shut off their lights on March 28 at 8:30 pm for the sake of the planet or global warming or something. According to the press released “377 cities around the world will take part in the global event, which seeks to ignite a new call for action on climate change in the U.S. and around the world.”
