Earth Island Journal is an American environmental journal ‘always looking for compelling and distinctive stories that anticipate environmental concerns before they become pressing problems’. The team like to be one step ahead and seek ‘stories that scan the horizon for the next big threat to our environment.’ Articles should ‘surprise, provoke, and entertain our readers and explore new territory overlooked by other publications.’
They want ‘investigative journalism, thoughtprovoking commentary and art to highlight the subtle but profound connections between the environment and other contemporary issues... from a wide range of perspectives – from the personal to the political, the local to the global’
