A huge body of research has linked staying indoors for a long time with poor physical and mental health; on the other end are the benefits of spending time outdoors, in or near green spaces. A massive review of data from about 300 studies that evaluated evidence regarding how contact with nature affects children’s health positively, has shown that the existence of greenspaces near homes and schools is strongly associated with improved physical activity and mental health outcomes in kids. The review, which was conducted by Washington State University and University of Washington scientists, highlighted that these benefits of exposure to nature could be even more pronounced for marginalized groups, as they do not get the same exposure to these greenspaces regularly.
