Citeo Care & Hygiene: Bossa Nova Campaign to Save Sewers

Ogilvy Paris and Citeo Care & Hygiene partnered with artist Philippe Katerine to create an absurdly catchy bossa nova track that educates on single-use wipe waste. The campaign, supported by an 8-bit web game and a live 'Bin-Tally' tracker, uses humor and art to encourage proper disposal. By embedding an ecological warning into popular culture, the campaign aims to drive behavioral change and reduce environmental impact. The result was a viral sensation that sparked public discussion about waste management and sustainability. The campaign successfully raised awareness and inspired behavioral shifts, demonstrating the power of creative storytelling to address pressing environmental issues.
