Good morning. Today we're going to discuss the impact of urban green spaces on mental health. A recent study conducted in Melbourne followed over 2,000 residents for five years. The researchers found that people living within 300 meters of a park or garden reported significantly lower levels of stress and anxiety. Interestingly, the effect was stronger for older adults, particularly those over 65. However, the study also noted that the quality of the green space mattered more than its size; well-maintained areas with trees and benches were more beneficial than large, empty lawns. So, city planners should focus on creating accessible, quality green spaces rather than just increasing their number.
