I resonate with and ascribe to your way of regarding environmental
alchemy as a kind of transformational and
transmutative process, which allows people to experience a more
profound sense of “biophilia”, after EO Wilson’s philosophy regarding
having a deep love of and kinship to life in its many forms and
species.  For me, environmental alchemy is the process by which any
one can reconnect with the roots of human nature, which is really
nature itself in all its complexity; expressed through weather, and
geography, natural history, encounters with plants and animals
(including pets), and the way we can translate and express these
primal/primary relationships through song, crafts, arts, poetry and
myth. This connotes your adage that “Alchemy is Transmutation is
Action & Communication.” JS
