CANNES, France—No one likes to see a bunch of trash win at the Cannes Lions, but in this case, it’s worth an exception.

“Trash Isles,” a pollution awareness campaign from AMV BBDO London and LADbible in partnership with The Plastic Oceans Foundation, today claimed its second Grand Prix at the advertising festival, adding a PR win alongside its Design Grand Prix announced on Wednesday.

Today’s win makes Trash Isles the first campaign at this year’s Cannes Lions to win more than one Grand Prix.
