There's a reason why they are numerically labeled Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water.
Earth is by far the most destructive force the mother nature can unleash. If mother nature decided to fuck us all, it's gonna be with the earth.
Fire, wind, or even water, with those, cities can be rebuilt, made stronger to resist such elements. People will be able to move back and get on with their lives.
Water can recede, winds can be blocked, fire can be contained. Earth, there is no way we can contain it, block it, or push it back. We may be able to move it around, but earth is earth; earth is under us and beside us, and if it decides one day to have the fit of all fits... it won't matter how high or how low of sea level where you're standing.
I'm going with fire on this one. When something burns it turns to ash which, is something entirely different then what it was before.
Floods can wash away towns and cities, whole islands even, but pieces will undoubtedly remain. The same goes for Tornados, Hurricanes, Earthquakes, and so on.
Things that are buried or that rest under water will eventually decay but, fire is absolute destruction.
Birds fly in the sky. Fish swim in the ocean. Insects and Animals live within the Ground. What lives inside Flame?
define destructive? and i figure water counts cause it exists in 3 (liquid, solid, gas) states and thus has 3x more damage than most others wind =wind can be any gaseous substance in a substantial amount with a means to induce flow fire = nuclear , plasma , chemical (most) , lightning? earth= rocks(all solid state elements and minerals , silica, metals ? decayed organic compounds?
maybe theres a way to more generalize it.. cause all things have different states and each one could affect the "destructive" behavior gas, liquid , solid , (plasma) , energy ... lol
i say wind. wind can blow the water, spread the fire, but i've never heard of wind causing a rock slide or anything, so i'm not too sure about the earth bit
