The Four Elements are a fantastic example for the multi-perspectivity: they can be scientifically analysed, but they are more than a compilation of elements. They also have spiritual and culturally connotated associations like water - life, fire - purification, and so on.
The SysMind Partnership has started its own journey towards discovering a more sustainable development with this English compilation about the perception of the Four Elements within their countries. By the way: did you know that one of the units of the MOOC is dealing with the Four elements?
