Many Mountains Moving, always committed to the important issues of diversity, language experiments, political witness, in addition to race, gender, and sexuality, has expanded the journal to include a recurring section devoted to ecopoetry:
We seek poetry that transcends boundaries, challenges the status quo, and takes risks. At one level, all poetry is ecopoetry–intimately engaged with attentiveness, relationship, and interconnectedness, but we seek the unclassifiable: the transgressive and transformative, the provocative and evocative, the generative and seductive. We want seeds, what anticipates change and expects wonder.
