Nature is Fluid & Interconnected: A perspective blending Queer Theory (challenging norms around gender/sexuality) with Ecology (the study of relationships in nature). Queer ecology questions assumptions that human norms (like heterosexuality or fixed binaries) are the only "natural" way. It invites us to see nature, ourselves, and our relationships with more nuance and complexity.

History and justice, ecology style! From ancient China to the Little Ice Age, the swamps of North Carolina to the guano mines of Latin America, these books examine how history has shaped and been shaped by the environment and ecological conflict, thereby transforming the lives of people living both near and far—usually to the singular benefit of capitalist and imperialist forces.
