Abstract in brief

  • The study analyzed existing research to explore how exposure to green spaces like parks and vegetation affects the risk of depression and anxiety, finding that more green space is associated with lower risks.
  • A 10% increase in green space or a small increase in vegetation health (measured by NDVI) significantly reduces the likelihood of depression and anxiety, indicating that greener environments can benefit mental health.
  • The findings suggest that enhancing or conserving green spaces should be considered a valuable public health strategy to prevent or reduce mental health issues related to depression and anxiety.]
