Tonight On Nature TV News

A Green Humour Collection

Paperback / Hardback

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 fifth 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.

Rohan Chakravarty

Rohan Chakravarty is the creator of Green Humour, a series of comics and illustrations on wildlife and nature conservation. He lives in Nagpur where he goes on nature trails every day, led by his pet dogs Srishti and Sakshi. His worst nightmare is that the wildlife featured in his comics will read them and gang up on him for revenge some day.

Rohan has authored seven other books, including Green Humour for a Greying Planet, Naturalist Ruddy, and Pugmarks and Carbon Footprints. Although he has won awards by UNDP, Sanctuary Asia, WWF International, the Royal Bank of Scotland and the Green and Bangalore Literature Festivals for his work, a fig that once dropped out of a hornbill’s mouth straight into his palm remains his most cherished PROZE.

Under normal circumstances, a June mood-board would probably be filled with things like citrus fruit, travel plans, swimsuits, bright colours and pretty food. Much like Darwin theorised though, we evolve to take advantage of the resources we have. The one thing we’ve always got is our books. […]
