"Earth, water, fire, and wind. Where there is energy there is life.”~ Suzy Kassem @One_Voice_1 is proud to present our #OVElements series. Our goal is to highlight the elements through the lens of climate change, to help advance the reversal of the damage done to our planet.

- coal mining
- landfills
- gas and oil sector
