    Who Will Save the Planet? Series

    About this series

    Fourteen-year-old Jason can't say no when Emma from school asks for his help to stop a logging company. But Jason's behaviour takes a turn for the worse after he receives some bad news, and he gets into a serious clash with the loggers. Curiously, the loggers don’t react as expected.

    Things get even stranger when weird computer glitches suggest the loggers are up to something. Using his computer smarts, Jason starts to investigate but it isn't long before he runs into technical difficulties.

    Luckily that mightn't matter because Emma's father has discovered something that brings the logging to a halt. But when Jason gets computer help from a surprising source, he makes a shocking discovery of his own that makes him wonder whether he should stay on Emma's side or quit the fight altogether. Unfortunately, getting the evidence he needs will require more bad behaviour.

    A lot more.

      Fourteen-year-old Jason can't work out how to get climate change fixed—until he saves the life of the mysterious and powerful Graham. Graham promises a reward, and Jason asks him to do something to stop climate change. The request is caught by the media, so Jason thinks the man's trapped and has to keep his word. But Graham's got other ideas. A battle of wits ensues as Jason tries to stop his captive from squirming out of his promise. Encounters that initially sound like fun end up getting heavy, and Jason's summer holidays get messed up by pushy reporters and resentful townspeople—not to mention a professor who seems to be on both sides at once. Jason finds that things aren't as simple as he first thought. With a deadline approaching, he has to decide whether to force Graham to honour his promise, or admit that he could actually be mistaken.
