Dinosaur Urges World Leaders Not To 'Choose Extinction' at United Nations

Bursting into the iconic General Assembly Hall, famous for history-making speeches by leaders from around the world, the imposing dinosaur tells an audience of shocked and bewildered diplomats and dignitaries that "it’s time humans stopped making excuses and started making changes" to address the climate crisis.

"At least we had an asteroid," the dinosaur warns, referring to the popular theory explaining dinosaurs’ extinction 70 million years ago. "What’s your excuse?"

This first-ever film to be made inside the UN General Assembly using computer-generated imagery (CGI) features global celebrities voicing the dinosaur in numerous languages, including actors Jack Black (English), Eiza González (Spanish), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Danish), and Aïssa Maïga (French).

The dinosaur goes on to highlight how financial support for fossil fuels through subsidies - taxpayers’ money that helps keep the cost of coal, oil and gas low for consumers - is irrational and illogical in the face of a changing climate.

"Think of all the other things you could do with that money. Around the world people are living in poverty. Don’t you think that helping them would make more sense than… paying for the demise of your entire species?" the dinosaur says.
