Earthsong (Popular Science)
Book Nook
by Bernhard Edmaier
DESCRIPTION

There are wide expanses of the earth's surface that are untouched by human influence. Here nature reigns and natural phenomena dominate and define the landscape. Photographed from above, the sights of volcanoes, glaciers, coral reefs, canyons, sea beds and rivers reveal the delicate and monumental natural patterns that are etched on the earth's crust. Bernhard Edmaier's photographs capture the beauty of these unspoiled areas and document phenomena that may last for a few brief moments or remain for millions of years. Earthsong divides the planet into four parts reflecting the major environments that cover its surface - Aqua (water), Barren (tundra), Desert (lands with minimal precipitation), and Green (forest and grass land). Thus the frozen ice of the Arctic appears with the warm oceans of the Pacific; we see coastal deserts alongside underwater deserts, glacial deserts and sand deserts; the lush green forests of Europe are juxtaposed with desert flowers; and floating river algae and icy alpine summits appear with the barren wastelands of the far north. Earthsong celebrates the boundless beauty of our planet and covers areas from the Bahamas to Ethiopia, New Zealand to the United States, Europe, Ecuador and the Antarctic.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
We are one of the few sellers that package our items with not only great care but environmental impact consideration. We're committed to a carbon-neutral parcel delivery through Australia Post which provides positive environmental and social impacts.

We utilise the following packaging:

  • We use a Landfill-biodegradable bundling wrap to quickly secure and bundle items to avoid damage during transit. It can be recycled or disposed of in the general rubbish bin. Once disposed to landfill biodegradation is accelerated approximately 90+% faster than conventional bundling wrap, producing an organic matter (a natural fertiliser) and no microplastics. We're so Happy about this!
  • Our plain padded bubble mailers are suitable for kerbside paper collection and recycling.
  • All of our satchels are recyclable through the REDcycle program.
  • All of our satchels are made from 80% recycled content plastic.
  • All of our envelopes can be recycled. Yay!
WHO ARE WE?
I'm based in Perth and I've been selling on ebay since 2001! During this time I've become a father, as well as grown and sold a successful multi-million dollar business. I now work doing what I love as a professional in a large multi-national company.

Reselling brings great satisfaction knowing that I can pair an item with a person, keeping it from landfill. This store also provides a great opportunity for me to teach my children how finances work and the basis of entrepreneurism.

I'm not afraid of hard work and enjoy buying and selling used items. I'm happy to network with like minded people and get a lot of satisfaction mentoring new business owners.

When I'm not picking stock, I'm usually out sailing or spending quality time with my family. I have a passion for antiques so you may see them in my store from time to time.
