We’ll take a look at specific examples like Big Snow, the artificial ski hill in the new American Dream mall, as well as others that might fly more under the radar. From the environmental impact of maintaining fake plants and trees, to the ways in which it can contribute to a sense of disconnection from the natural world, we’ll be exploring the various issues that come with the use of artificial nature in these settings.
