fyi - this was a TV advertisment that was broadcast in Melbourne (Australia) and other parts of Victoria, I think around 2005 & 2006. The ad was commissioned by the Victorian state government and Sustainability Victoria [ http://www.sustainability.vic.gov.au ].

What an awesome, smart and effective ad!
Hope it'll be beneficial to the planet but, sadly, most ads can't easily convert in actions!

This is a very beautiful film.

It shows that what must change in order to save the world. We need more such films. So that everyone understands.

Interesting - I thought this was an ad created by The We Campaign, a project of the alliance for Climate Protection (a group founded by Al Gore).

See the very same "black baloon" video but with different text and the voice of Tommy Lee Jones:
