Research conducted by the University of New South Wales found out living in neighbourhoods with more tree canopy may help reduce depression in older Australians.
The study followed more than a thousand participants, showing living near green areas, water bodies, and cleaner air may improve the mental wellbeing for Australians over 70 years of age.
It also shows urban planning needs to include green areas to keep the community active and social.
