Today we're discussing the impact of urban green spaces on mental health. A recent study followed 500 city dwellers over two years. Participants who visited parks at least three times a week reported a 22% lower risk of depression compared to those who rarely went. Interestingly, the duration of each visit mattered less than the frequency. Even short trips of 10 minutes were beneficial. However, the quality of the green space, such as tree density and quietness, also played a role. The study concluded that regular access to nature, even in small doses, could be a simple public health strategy.

A. A. Visiting parks for at least 30 minutes each time
B. B. Visiting green spaces frequently, even for short periods
C. C. Having a large park with high tree density nearby
