Residential green space in childhood is associated with lower risk of psychiatric disorders from adolescence into adulthood [1]

Urban residence is associated with a higher risk of some psychiatric disorders, but the underlying drivers remain unknown. [2]
There is increasing evidence that the level of exposure to natural environments impacts mental health, but few large-scale epidemiological studies have assessed the general existence and importance of such associations. Here, we investigate the prospective association between green space and mental health in the Danish population.
