The Elemental Warriors

Even with all the warnings about global climate change, people tend to forget about certain fundamental actions of theirs that could make a difference: such as brushing their teeth with the tap off, recycling their tetra pack of juice, unnecessarily using private transportation for short distances, and leaving lights blazing unnecessarily. They forget that running water is precious water being wasted, recycling is necessary, leaving lights on is a waste of energy and petrol is not endless. They forget that tomorrow is another day, another time, and that earth is a living, breathing entity.

This is not yet another wake-up-call-to-climate change book, nor does it list out sordid details about the irreparable effects of global warming. The author has conducted intensive research and devised a systematic plan that can be implemented by people like you and me.

The Element Warriors: Air, Water, Fire and Earth is a handy guide to helping readers contributing what they can to keeping the earth clean, green and safe.
