Do you see Beauty in Nature? You may be more Satisfied with Life

The environment is an important issue even when society is faced with economic crises, wars, and unending social problems. It matters because Earth is the only home that humans have, and it provides air, food, and other needs.reason the environment is so important is because it is a source of natural beauty. Nature is considered necessary for proper physical and mental health too, according to the University of Minnesota. People enjoy nature for recreation, sports such as skiing in snow or rafting, and tourism according to TEEB.

Many environmental psychologists (they study the psychological effects of natural and built environments on humans) have shown empirically that spending time in nature has real psychological benefits.Environmental psychologists have for a while now used the Connectedness to Nature scale to measure people’s cognitive connection to nature. The scale assesses one’s belief that connection to the natural world is an important part of one’s sense of self. Several environmental psychology research studies have shown that people who score high on this scale also report greater concern for the environment as well as greater happiness and social acceptance.

What about you? Do you stop to admire nature’s beauty?
