Great work by the @CityofEdmonton on improving urban wellbeing. In a city that is growing at a fast pace, this is very much needed.

An invitation to rethink cities as well as our activities in them 👇

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

A new @se_casc study finds that "nature-based experiences, and bird-watching in particular, increase well-being and reduce distress" on college campuses.

More of this, please!
