Thanks Chris and Julie--very helpful and I do plan to order Greed

I'm reading Earth Songs -- A Resurgence anthology of contemporary eco-poetry and discovered Resurgence magazine--looks open to poetry and articles on poets--I need to explore the site more but it seems an excellent resource

http://www.resurgence.org/magazine/i...s-of-hope.html

In the preface to The Ecopoetry Anthology, the editors write:
“What we humans disregard, what we fail to know and grasp, is easy to destroy – a mountain top, a coral reef, a forest, a human community. Yet poetry returns us in countless ways to the world of our senses. It can act, in Franz Kafka’s phrase, as “an ice axe to break the frozen sea inside us.” awakening our dulled perceptions and feelings.”
