this might be kinda stupid, but i've played a game called harvest moon where you manage a farm, animals and veges. You also go looking for love but that's another issue :P
I thought that was pretty good and you also learn some environmental issues, like taking care of your livestock and plants. Although quite primitive it does get across some issues i guess.
You could even go further and look at some real time stratergy games where you have to manage resources, although thats probably pushing it and beyond what you're after?
I haven't played any of the games you've mentioned, although i was also wondering if you could shed more details on your research and other sub goal you'd like to achieve or explore. it seems quite general atm, well for me.
also a game like sim city and i am sure other simulation games look at envirtonmental effects, like water pollution or general smog. They do teach you a bit about the environment, i guess?
So sim city 4 or whichever one came out recently or this year might be one to look at?
