Orion Magazine

About

Orion is a nonprofit, ad-free, quarterly magazine whose mission is to invite readers into a community of caring for the planet. Since its first issue was published in 1982, Orion has sought to explore and enrich the mysterious connections between people and the environments we inhabit, inspiring new thinking about how humanity might live on Earth justly, sustainably, and joyously.

At the heart of our current strategic plan is Orion's New Constellation Initiative, which ensures that we pursue our mission with a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Our editorial identity is guided by this commitment and seeks to follow these guidelines: we publish increasingly diverse and global voices; work that represents the environment as inseparable from human life and culture; and work with uncompromising ethical standards and compassion for both our human and more-than-human peers. By following these guidelines, Orion is the only environmental magazine in operation today that consistently includes work from around the globe (often in English translation) and which emphasizes culture (including pop culture) through an environmental lens.

In addition, Orion publishes an annual anthology, holds an annual in-person writing workshop in New York's Hudson Valley and several virtual writing workshops, and hosts several virtual events throughout the year in which our contributors are in conversation with thought leaders in science, art, and the environmental movement.
