Brilliant idea and clever execution!  In today’s world, where scary climatic changes are threatening the planet – rising seas, melting glaciers, swirling wild fires, furious hurricanes, etc, etc – this advertisement sends a subtle  yet powerful message, which should go a long way in convincing the general public about buying a Nissan Leaf.  No doubt in my mind the consumers will for a moment think about Nissan Leaf in a positive light when they set out  the find an Electric Vehicle or a Hybrid Electric Vehicle! Not even Lance Armstrong can make such a compelling case!
