LIVING NEAR TREES MAKES PEOPLE FEEL SEVEN YEARS OLDER

Want to feel healthier? So live in a neighborhood surrounded by green spaces.

A new study has found that anyone who lives on a street with 10 or more trees than average (both on the street and in people’s home gardens) can make a person feel seven years younger.

Researchers already knew that living near green spaces makes people happier, safer, and that vegetation can help reduce diseases such as asthma. However, the new study goes further, analyzing the benefits as a function of the number of existing trees.
