Walker's research explores how literature and art respond to planetary-scale environmental challenges, including climate change, biodiversity loss, and radioactive waste. His courses integrate the Environmental Humanities with social justice frameworks, analyzing genres like climate fiction, post-apocalyptic narratives, and speculative fiction.
His 2021 publication on Wiggins's John Dollar examines atmospheric experimentation in literature, linking it to Timothy Choy's and Derek McCormack's scholarship on atmospheric things. This work bridges ecological thought with narrative innovation.
