We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Philosophy; The natural world, country life & pets; Rocks, minerals & fossils

Our use of fossil fuels has allowed us to plunder Earth's natural resources and abuse the rest of the life on the planet. For a while they have allowed us to pretend that we make the rules. But Mother Nature has always made the rules and she has, because of our neglect, began laying the foundation for a brand-new future, a future that will not be to our liking.

Despite the growth of renewable energy, fossil fuels (CO2) still account for 80 percent of the world's energy usage. People are finally learning that to leave a healthy stable world for future generations we need act now for solutions. Unfortunately, those who deny that climate change doesn't even exist are now back in power and we will lose four years or possibly more in being able to arrive at a solution, four years we don't have. We are experiencing the greatest tragic historical event humanity has ever experienced and many people do not even recognize it.
