Connect with Nature
Research tells us that the more people experience nature, the more they support conservation of our natural world. People tend to be happier, healthier, and more productive when the environment is a meaningful part of their lives.
When people feel connected to their natural world, they are more likely to demand and engage in sound management practices in the face of growing environmental challenges.
Alas, many city dwellers face barriers that prevent them from experiencing and caring for nature. In poor urban communities, people rarely have the means to get to green spaces. Without easy and affordable access to nature, people, especially children, are losing the opportunity to play outside and experiencing nature firsthand.
