Cultural and aesthetic studies, however, are just as important to human health and well-being. Check out greenmuseum.org for scores of functional, conscious and environmentally proactive artworks. It takes everything. In response to snark:

Hate to break it to you creative types, but you wouldn't even know biodiversity was changing in World Heritage Sites if it weren't for the studies you so pompously dismiss as superfluous. Baboons, bird migration, and oceanic chemistry are far more important to preserving what we can of nature than a bunch of artsy types going and communing with the land. “Recently an exhibition opened that feels like a much more vital endeavor”
