Meet The World

So I got an email that made my day.....the subject...meet the world..
Icaro Doria, a Brazilian man, working for a magazine in Portugal started this campaign using real data from the UN and flag images, he’s created whats known as Meet the World. The colors within the flags from its respective country are used to represent current, geographical relevant issues. Take a look.
The flags have hit a nerve as they've circled the earth once or twice already in chain letter emails even though they were only intended to be a poster campaign, won a well deserved gold at the One Show, and over at Brazilian artist .net they have a short email chat with Icaro Doria.
These 'Ads' have been all over the web described as anything but an ad campaign.
It's either "art" or a "political statement" and it's even  been fictitiously nominated as "an entry for contention in the Nobel Prize of Political Marketing." (see here).
