Green spaces have lasting positive effect on well-being

Living in an urban area with green spaces has a long-lasting positive impact on people's mental well-being, a study has suggested.
UK researchers found moving to a green space had a sustained positive effect, unlike pay rises or promotions, which only provided a short-term boost.The authors said the results indicated that access to good quality urban parks was beneficial to public health.The findings appear in the journal Environmental Science and Technology.

I couldn't agree with this more - check out the story here.

All the best Jan
