Research shows that urban residents without access to green spaces have a higher incidence of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). By 2050, urban living will increase dramatically.
Studies indicate that living in greener areas correlates with lower rates of NCDs and better physical and mental health, regardless of socio-economic status or gender.
Significant health benefits arise when we interact with nature, supported by scientific findings that demonstrate how such interactions activate beneficial biochemical pathways in our bodies.
In 2022, 196 countries committed to increasing urban green space by 2030 during the United Nations Conference of Parties for Biodiversity, recognizing the health impacts of NCDs.
