Short explanation

Man-made climate catastrophes and environmental disasters, shrinking wildlife habitats, unscrupulous hunting – many endangered species are running out of (life-) time. Our task was to illustrate this dramatic situation in an easily understandable yet arousing way.

Description

“It’s 5 minutes 'till 12” is a German expression meaning “We don’t have much time before a catastrophe strikes” – in the adverts’ case – before a species becomes extinct. So the advert shows crushed animals between the hands of a watch, because if you want to save species, you must not lose any time and donate now.
