It is true that culture can modify biological perceptional
responses, but colours, light intensity and patterns evoke
emotional responses at a rather low level. On top of that you
have the semiotics (the cultural customs or idioms if you will).
People like sunsets for a reason, it's time to stop up and change
your activity, then return to your safe village as you don't get
to see the predators after dark. It makes sense to feel at peace
with blue, it is evening, save energy and find sleep (Microsoft
used blue for software crashes...). It makes sense to enjoy green
surroundings, you are more likely to find food there.
