The correct answer is that humans are too easily distracted from nature by material pursuits.
Romanticists were all about nature - they believed it was a perfect place to rest and escape reality, as well a place where they would find inspiration for their works. However, most people remained in the cities, seeking wealth, and forgetting about the beautiful world around them.
