They mostly publish novels that impart environmental-social justice themes. Poems that focus on nature and the urgency with which we need to save our planet, are appreciated. GWP is also interested in short stories—again, a collection with an environmentally-themed thread that runs throughout. Their nonfiction list is broader and includes memoirs, science-based writing, education, and spirituality.
