I need YOUR help to let Clearcast know WE want them to overturn their ban on the Iceland Christmas Advert!!
Clearcast said it rejected the Rang-tan advert on the grounds it does not comply with the political rules set out in the Broadcast Code of Advertising Practice (BCAP).
So I am asking you to please Tweet, Facebook and Email them to overturn the ban and help raise make a splash this year in the hotly contested battle for the title of most memorable Christmas advert with a hard-hitting animated offering spotlighting the role of palm oil in driving rainforest destruction.
You can do this by:
Tweeting to them on Twitter @Clearcast
Example Tweet: @Clearcast we do not understand why you have banned this advert from being shown. Surely raising awareness of deforestation and the overuse of palm oil is vital and what a better way of doing it than at Christmas! Let’s overturn the ban and show @IcelandFoods advert this #Christmas (https://www.change.org/p/release-iceland-s-banned-christmas-advert-on-tv-nopalmoilchristmas #NoPalmOilChristmas
