Earth, water, air and fire. #greenLiving

The elements provide an excellent framework for laying out your green thoughts. Some use 5 with aether or spirit as an additional idea but I shall focus on 5 in this occasional series.

1. Earth – the giver of resources, mostly rocks but also fossil fuels. Aluminium, hydrocarbons, glass and wood. Talcum and kaolinite, lithium and slate.

2. Water – essential for life; drinking, washing and flushing. it could include other liquids, such as oil. Feeds our plants and makes us smell.

3. Air – the stuff we breathe but also our weather systems and the pollutants we discard, mainly carbon.

4. Fire – the power we use to heat our lives, cook our food and celebrate the key occasions. Mainly electricity or gas but wood for some and candles others.

I intend to bitesize my experiences from over the last two years. Buying a new house, shedding the unnecessary and making conscientious decisions to buy green.
