Getting started late.
Natural commons: air/wind, sun, ocean, trees, grass, lichen, squirrels, birds, moths, butterflies, seals, otters, fruits and vegetables
Human-made/Social commons: schools, college, streets, rec/bike trail, sidewalks, streetlights, education, parks, tennis court, library, farmers market, church, meditation hall, city hall, museums
What surprised me: the connections I made that had not occurred to me previously:
1) the library is both an educational tool that enriches the individual and by extension the community and a community resource as a social gathering place (poetry readings, talks)
2) Although I made a conscious choice to live where I live so that I can bike to and from work, walk to and from beaches, stores and community/human-made commons like the library, museums and farmers' market while making my tour I became more conscious of how grateful I am for that ability and how the natural commons enhance that experience (the sun, ocean breezes, butterflies, seabirds and mammals).
How do the human and natural Commons work together to support well-being as you defined it earlier?
I am also aware that much of what I need to survive comes from outside my immediately accessible neighborhood, e.g., the food I purchase at the farmers' market and local stores. The water I use to drink, cook, wash with is transported from elsewhere which requires energy and other natural and human-made resources to manage and deliver. The human-made coast trail makes it possible for me to enjoy many of the natural resources in a safe, healthy and relaxing manner.
