The scene features a tight close-up shot of a young man, framed from his forehead down to his chest, occupying the majority of the vertical frame. His face is positioned centrally, looking directly into the camera with a stern, determined expression. The background is a soft, light grey or off-white, slightly out of focus, creating a clean, minimalist environment that keeps the focus entirely on the subject. The lighting is soft and even, likely coming from the front, illuminating his face without harsh shadows, giving a clear, natural look. The dominant colors are the warm, dark tones of his skin and hair contrasted with the light grey background and the black of his glasses. Overlayed in white text, slightly above the center of the frame, are the words "Facing extinction". The overall mood is serious and urgent. The camera remains static throughout this shot, emphasizing the subject's direct address.

The scene transitions to a solid black screen, devoid of any visual elements other than white text. The text is centrally aligned and presented in a clean, sans-serif font. The main message reads: "Tell Congress there is no room in government for climate deniers". Below this, a distinct rectangular box, filled with a slightly lighter grey or white, contains the instruction: "Text CLIMATE to 71333". Finally, at the very bottom, in smaller white text, is the tagline: "Answer with Action". The lighting is uniform, illuminating the white text against the stark black background. The color palette is strictly monochrome: black and white. There are no actions or camera movements, creating a clear, direct, and impactful call to action.
