14 min - Nurturing nature knowledge
How much do we really know about the natural world in which we live? How much importance do we attach to the natural world in which we live, and how much effort do we put into understanding it? Are we able to identify trees, to distinguish between bird songs, to recognise wild plants…?
Learning about nature is important – for one, we need this knowledge to be able to live in it as harmoniously and respectfully as possible. But research shows that spending time in nature and better understanding it can also reduce our stress, improve our mood and increase our overall satisfaction with life.

About Euranet Plus Green Deal podcast
From the publisher's feed
The European Union wants to go green. In December 2019, the European Commission unveiled its Green Deal, its roadmap to making the EU economy sustainable and thus achieving its end goal: to become the first climate-neutral continent by 2050.
But what does the Green Deal mean for each of us? As citizens, as consumers, what habits will we need to change to make our day-to-day lives more sustainable? What compromises will we have to make? And what measures can we expect from Europe and our national public authorities to encourage these changes?
By delving into daily life across the EU in this Green Deal podcast, our network of radio correspondents provides insight and answers to the challenges facing the bloc.
