Shrinking the Earth: The Rise and Decline of Natural AbundanceThe discovery of the Americas around 1500 AD was an extraordinary watershed in human experience. It gave rise to the modern period of human ecology, a phenomenon global in scope that set in motion profound changes in almost every society on earth. This new period, which saw the depletion of the lands of the New World, proved tragic for some, triumphant for others, and powerfully affecting for all.

The discovery of the Americas around 1500 AD was an extraordinary watershed in human experience. It gave rise to the modern period of human ecology, a phenomenon global in scope that set in motion profound changes in almost every society on earth. This new period, which saw the depletion of the lands of the New World, proved tragic for some, triumphant for others, and powerfully affecting for all. In this work, acclaimed environmental historian Donald Worster takes a global view in his examination of the ways in which complex issues of worldwide abundance and scarcity have shaped American society and behavior over three centuries. Looking at the limits nature imposes on human ambitions, he questions whether America today is in the midst of a shift from a culture of abundance to a culture of limits--and whether American consumption has become reliant on the global South. Worster engages with key political, economic, and environmental thinkers while presenting his own interpretation of the role of capitalism and government in issues of wealth, abundance, and scarcity. Acknowledging the earth's agency throughout human history, Shrinking the Earth offers a compelling explanation of how we have arrived where we are and a hopeful way forward on a planet that is no longer as large as it once was.Binding Type: Paperback

Great option for holding lots of necklaces
Color: Grey
It holds a lot of necklaces. Especially ones with thinner chains.
It gives you the option because there’s dividers that you can use any way you want. I probably have between 30 to 40 necklaces and this five drawer holder, and it takes a very little space on my vanity.

Liked it so much I bought a second one
Color: Grey
Good quality….a little disappointed I thought the sections were stationary, however I’m able to move them to accommodate the chain size. Clear color and light weight. Fits in with my decor. I ended up buying g a second one I liked it so much!

Dividers don’’t stay in place
Color: Beige
The dividers do not stay in place. It’s a great idea but not well executed because the dividers pop up or slide, leaving the necklaces to get tangled.

Slots inside drawers are not tight enough.
Color: Grey
I got an earring storage bin that matches this one and I do like this storage drawer set, but the little slots that separate the necklaces move around too easily and I don’t like that. It looks classy with the other stack I have.

Great Tray For Storing My Everyday Carries
Size: 8.5" x 5.8" x 1.9", Color: Black
My everyday carry items (wallet, keys, etc.), used to just get thrown around wherever when I'd get home, but this little tray makes a great, defined, space for me to keep those things when I don't need them on me. The soft lining reduces the obnoxious sound of throwing keys on a hard surface, and of course keeps me from scratching up a surface. The build feels quality and I haven't seen any damage to it yet. Also the all black version with gold buckle looks quite good and adds a subtle touch of luxury. Absolute recommend for the price.
