Dedeté 2008 Graphic Humor Contest

Dedeté 2008 Graphic Humor Contest
Deadline: January, 14 2008
It is critical to great a consciousness about phenomena ecologically affecting the planet. Likewise, powers and governments such as that of the United States are promoting the use of the bio-fuels for political ends, without considering the social consequences. These effects, taking the form of natural disasters, are producing global warming to such a degree that “climatic change” has prompted the newspaper to convene the International Biennial Dedeté 2008.
