Island Press

Island Press advances ideas that help meet today’s most urgent environmental challenges. We elevate voices of change, bring attention to critical issues, and emphasize practical, sustainable solutions.

Our publishing programs center on three interconnected areas:

  • Food systems, water, and health
  • Ecosystems, conservation, and biodiversity
  • The built environment

Across these areas, our books address pressing questions: how to design livable, resilient cities with opportunities for all; how to ensure abundant, clean water; how to protect the beauty and diversity of the natural world; and how to limit the scale and impact of climate change.

We bring ideas to life not only through our publishing, but through outreach and events that connect authors with practitioners, policymakers, and communities who can put ideas into action. Our programs and partnerships foster dialogue, spark collaboration, and help move change forward on the ground.
