Environmental scientists say increasing access to nature in all everyday settings and education
People will use more green space if it is available throughout their everyday environment, not just where they live. Professor Yuta Uchiyama of Kobe University said, “These results can be used as evidence for policy making, especially in the fields of environmental management and urban planning, as there is a possibility of utilizing green spaces not only around residential areas…
