What do Mark Ruffalo, Huron, Calif., Mayor Rey Leon, Watts, Calif., leader Mama Linda Cleveland, former California Air Resources Board chair Mary Nichols and California Energy Commission Chair David Hochschild all have in common? They are just a few of the superheroes on the screen and behind the scenes of Veloz’s latest Electric For All culture change campaign via creative agency Superconductor, “40 million Reasons to Go Electric” with an optimistic message the world could use right now. As California leads the way to a zero-emissions new car fleet by 2035, this campaign aims to show the country and world how to get there faster.
Previewed at the Clean Energy for America Inaugural Ball and launching January 27 as the new administration advances its clean energy agenda, Veloz’s multi-stakeholder, multi-million dollar nonprofit, nonpartisan campaign is the product of unprecedented collaboration and spotlights local and global superhero agents of change fighting for social, economic and environmental justice, celebrating California’s many cultures, and underscoring the reasons each and every Californian has to go electric.
The campaign includes bilingual animations with an original neo-soul-inspired tune sung by Los Angeles-based, Barbadian-born singer Ayoni, about whom V Magazine said “is destined to hit superstar levels.”
