Landmines were an issue long before January of 1997.
Prince Charles swept for landmines in the 1970s.
Clearing landmines from war torn countries was always in the news. Showing children who were disable because of landmines was also covered.
Landmine placed in Cambodia and Vietnam are still being cleared today. Cambodia has the highest number of amputees in the world.
Audrey Hepburn campaigned against landmines. Here's her speech from 1991.http://www.unicef.org/about/history/trim/audrey_hepburn_materials/doc/doc401484.PDF
It is simply a matter of people seeing and remembering what they want.
