They Will Come to Town
New York is still. Not a soul in sight. The café's are all empty, no lights are burning. The city seems dead, as if it was just recently deserted. Then, shadows begin to fall over the streets and buildings. Their numbers keeps increasing. When the view is cleared, a whale and some schools of fish majestically float overhead. We see a total view of New York and realize that the entire city lies under water and is now populated by ocean creatures. Claim: Stop global warming before it stops us.

This Way Up
Laying the dead to rest has never been so much trouble.
