Loved this article and think that leading with water to connect on Nature is a great idea in the current political environment.

What about any of these: Natural life support systems or Nature’s ability to support life , planet benefits, earths support systems, or vital natural infrastructure?

Thank you for surfacing this area of potential! Water indeed connects us on a deep material and spiritual level.

How about "Earth gifts?" instead of ecosystem services? We need to find a good term for that.
