Midnight Tails will take you on a journey through the jungles - both concrete and biotic! Find joy watching baboons splay themselves across the roots of ancient trees; learn what light pollution and thinning ice can do to ecosystems that thrive in Arctic darkness; explore rapid urbanisation and the lives it alters; meet one man saving the lives of not only the Pangolins in Uganda, but also the people who hunt them; and teleport to France - behind the cliff of Etretat, where in an almost lunar space, a blind man with seasoned hands hunts crabs and lobsters. Whether you are wild or domesticated, this strand is for you.

Anita Chitaya has a gift.


She can help raise food from dead soil, she can make men fight for gender equality, and she can end child hunger in her village!


Now, to save her home from extreme weather, she faces her greatest challenge yet: persuading Americans that climate change is real.


Traveling from Malawi to California, she meets climate skeptics and despairing farmers. It will take all her skill and experience to help these Americans recognise, and free themselves from, a logic that is destroying the Earth.
