Everything is natural---in the sense of being in nature. Because nature is everything. The problem is that some persons think that ``artificial'' and ``unnatural'' are synonymous. If it's artificial, it's made by man. Man exists in nature. And all things man made. By derogation, ``natural'' has come to mean ``wild'' or nigh thereof. (Eschew false arrogation.)
There is another sense of ``natural'' I much prefer (the other is nigh useless), that is more about fitting well with environs, or another. Natural landscaping blends in with nature. It's artificial, without clashing with it's environs. Not that such is not necessarily natural in arrogate sense of being nigh wild. Medieval forests were managed, safer for human visitors, with especial care to support the lives by which we profit---berries, mushrooms,, Not wild at all. But natural, in the `fitness' sense.
