Good morning, everyone. Today we're discussing the impact of urban green spaces on mental health. A recent study conducted in Melbourne followed 2,000 residents over five years. Participants who lived within 300 meters of a park reported 15% lower stress levels. Interestingly, the size of the park mattered less than its accessibility. Even small gardens with benches and trees showed significant benefits. However, the effect was stronger for older adults, who often use these spaces for social interaction. The researchers suggest that city planners should prioritize adding green areas near residential zones, especially in densely populated neighborhoods.
