Slogan How we killed a 4,000-year-old word to keep elephants alive
Trama Hong Kong is the world's ivory trade capital.  But because the word for "ivory" translates to "elephant-tooth", over 70% of Chinese people believe ivory extraction is harmless.  We needed to pressure the government to ban the trade.
Change the law by changing the language.  Hong Kongers joined forces wtih linguistic experts to co-create a new word for "ivory".  Each word was also a petition signature.  We showed the harm caused by a simple word, and created lasting cultural change.
