What is your definition of being natural?

Environmental ethics has me thinking so I want to know your opinion on it. Personally, I don’t agree with how we exclude humans from nature. I feel anything that abides to the laws of science would be considered natural and such that the creations of humans are natural. I feel like the objects we create are like those of ants, bees, and beavers. All of them build structures, ruining some areas and species while benefiting themselves and those who have adapted to the conditions that occur afterwards. All of the things we create still abide to the laws of science. Like our vaccines or buildings. They are not super natural in anyway.
I think that our separation from the environment is our downfall. It gives the feeling of an “us and them” situation. Since we are not connected directly to the environment we don’t take action.
