Water, water everywhere..?

‘Natural resources’ are largely taken for granted by many members, institutions and enterprises in our societies. They’re usually viewed as a means of achieving our ends through processes of extraction. We may nurture them to help with these goals but ultimately seldom are they truly appreciated for their utility beyond production. That’s unfortunate given that if a deeper appreciation could be adopted perhaps we would be less extractive and more additive? That is, through an engagement with nature we can widen our understanding not only of our physical, outer world but also our spiritual, inner world. Through that kind of worldview we could begin to find peace with each other as nature finds peace – co-existence – with itself.
