Earth Alliance’s Delicious Nuggets
Earth Alliance is a worldwide although US-centric organization at the meeting point between ecological fight and the creative industry. Earth Alliance was co-founded by actor Leonardo Di Caprio (with Laurene Powell Jobs and Brian Sheth) in 2019 and heavily advertised as such at first, but we noticed the disappearance of his name from their main channels headers, maybe due to the recurring questions around the actor’s ethics and way of life (partners systematically under the age of 25…).
Delicious Nuggets are the first main public content released by Earth Alliance, in the shape of a website featuring articles targeted to creators interested into using their voices to raise awareness around climate change, as well as a fund to foster such creators. From the Nuggets website:
Nuggets are bite-sized, science-backed snacks to help creators—like you—change the conversation about the climate crisis.
Earth Alliance features a festival of typefaces for their “Nuggets”, with visual cues inspired by (online) magazine design. The three main families are Kilotype’s Queens, NaN Tragedy, and Colophon’s Basis Grotesque. Each nugget, treated as an independent article, can feature a range of additional titling fonts, although some of them (Review, Ohno Softie) are used across different nuggets. The font license budget of this project might have been juicy.
