Notes:	In the aftermath of Covid-19, the entire country was suffering from the impact of the epidemic, which triggered the desire of most Chinese to prove that the Chinese are still part of the world's citizens and can benefit the world. This campaign gives an outlet to that desire at this critical point. In August 2020, the United Nations told an animated story with a tragic ending to all Chinese students to reveal the 2030 global agenda we all face. Through the use of creative communication, the sweet and touching story was used to illustrate to the public the importance of environmental protection, which is widely considered by many to be one of the priorities under the Sustainable Development Goals. Animation communicates in an easy-to-understand way, especially for the younger generation. Rather than harshly blaming humans for the harm their actions have caused, it resonates with the public and has a greater effect among the Chinese. You can save our planet, you know where to go. Leveraging the one-billion user WeChat platform for promotion, the short film called for Chinese youth to engage in dialogue on the future. Thanks to Tencent’s efforts in maximizing the PR resources, the initiative was elevated to state media. The support and acknowledgement from the government brought it further into the limelight and sparked hot discussion among youth.
