Tonight On Nature TV News – Rohan Chakravarty

Description

A rich collection of ingenious, experimental short stories from a master of the craft

Spanning two turbulent years marked by the unchecked rise of billionaires, technocracies and climate catastrophes, and the steady erosion of nature, wildlife and Indigenous rights, Tonight on Nature TV News captures the world as seen by those who stand to lose the most. Through cartoons from the award-winning ‘Green Humour’ series, wild animals and the occasional human protagonist deliver sharp, informed, and often biting commentary on global environmental affairs.

From Donald Trump’s return to the White House and its environmental shockwaves, to the quiet erasure of human and ecological rights amid wars in Palestine and sub-Saharan Africa; from an ambiguous COP30 in Brazil to deepening environmental apathy across Asia, these cartoons hold up a mirror to a planet in crisis. Along the way, they also introduce readers to recent breakthroughs in ecology, weaving urgency with insight, satire with science.

Tune in to Nature TV News, the fourth collection of ‘Green Humour’ cartoons by Rohan Chakravarty, brings together work from his weekly columns with The Hindu and Roundglass Sustain, and his fortnightly features with Deutsche Welle and Mongabay International. By turning the news cycle into a wildlife broadcast, Chakravarty reminds us that the natural world has been watching all along and it has plenty to say.
