Research shows that connecting with nature can improve happiness, wellbeing, life satisfaction, and mental and physical health. Research can also demonstrate that higher levels of nature connection correlate with pro-environmental and pro-social behaviours, so increasing people’s feeling of connection to the natural world around us is good for nature and for the environment!
'Nature connection for the people!' is my ongoing illustration and poster design project: exploring the motivating power of illustration to inspire nature connection as a very personal and positive way to respond to health, social and environmental issues. I hope my drawings will inspire you to go outdoors and find some joy in nature today, and give a sense that eve the smallest act of nature connection can be a fun, easy and proactive step towards enjoying a nicer world around us.
