Abstract
Queerness is a human construct, fitted to human lives and timespaces, whereas the timespaces of ecologies are radically di!erent, often evolving over millions of years. Queerness also does not apply readily to animal sexualities, which are polymorphous, but which cannot be judged or pigeonholed as queer. This short essay seeks to reconcile the two and clarify the usefulness of the term ‘queer ecology’ by as referring to habitable landscapes and queer and/or trans landscape relations. These relations are seen as nonlinear and intransitive, and thus their orientations also describe a queer re-lation to the future.
