Taking as its provocation Leo Bersani’s fleeting turn to questions of ecology at the end of his 2002 essay “Sociability and Cruising,” this piece asks what it would mean to use the practice of cruising as an unexpected model for a new ecological ethic, one more deeply attuned to our impersonal intimacies with the human, nonhuman, and elemental strangers that constitute both our environment and ourselves. In order to develop such a model, the essay looks not only to Bersani’s work but also (and primarily) to Samuel R. Delany’s Times Square Red, Times Square Blue, whose attention to the positive fallout of spontaneous cross-class contact, I claim, complicates the proprietary, insular, and paranoid logics prevalent in much popular environmental discourse. Delany’s text, which decenters both intention and identity in its definition of the social, limns the contours of a queer environmentalism predicated less on intentional, direct(ed) investment than on ambient affects, impersonal futures, and nonteleological practices of care.

Leo Bersani在其2002年论文“社会与巡航”的结尾转瞬即逝地转向生态问题时,提出的挑衅性问题是,将巡航作为一种新的生态伦理学的意想不到的模式来使用意味着什么?深深地调和了我们与构成我们环境和我们自己的人类,非人类和基本的陌生人之间的非个人亲密关系。为了开发这样的模型,本文不但着眼于Bersani的工作,而且着眼于(主要是)塞缪尔·R·德拉尼(Samuel R. Delany)的《时代广场红》,《时代广场蓝》。我声称,他关注自发跨类接触的积极影响使得复杂的专有逻辑,孤立逻辑和偏执逻辑在许多流行的环境论述中普遍存在。德拉尼的案文在其社会定义中既分散了意图,又分散了身份,
