Good morning, everyone. Today we're going to discuss the impact of urban green spaces on mental health. Recent studies have shown that even small parks in city centers can significantly reduce stress levels. For example, a study conducted in Melbourne found that residents living within 300 meters of a park reported 20% lower anxiety scores. However, the researchers noted that the size of the park mattered less than the quality of the greenery, such as the presence of trees and water features. Interestingly, the benefits were stronger for people who visited the park at least twice a week, compared to those who only viewed it from their windows.
