Good morning. Today we're discussing the impact of urban green spaces on mental health. A recent study conducted in Melbourne followed 1,200 residents over five years. Participants who visited parks at least twice a week reported 20% lower stress levels. Interestingly, the size of the green space mattered less than the frequency of visits. Even small community gardens showed benefits. However, the study noted that access to private gardens had no significant effect. The researchers suggest that public spaces encourage social interaction, which may explain the difference. So, for city planners, the key is not to create large parks but to ensure many small, accessible green areas within walking distance.
