Good morning, everyone. Today we'll discuss the impact of urban green spaces on mental health. A recent study from the University of Melbourne tracked 500 adults over five years. Participants who visited parks at least once a week reported 20% lower stress levels. Interestingly, the size of the green space mattered less than the frequency of visits. Also, activities like walking or jogging in these areas were more beneficial than passive sitting. The researchers suggest that even small community gardens can have significant positive effects, especially for office workers.
