Why support Monrovia parks and open space?
A number of organizations and nonprofits have documented the overall health and wellness benefits provided by parks, open space, and trails. The Trust for Public Land published a report in 2005 called The Benefits of Parks: Why America Needs More City Parks and Open Space. This report makes the following observations about the health, economic, environmental and social benefits of parks and open space:
-
Physical activity makes people healthier.
-
Physical activity increases with access to parks.
-
Contact with the natural world improves physical and physiological health.
-
Value is added to community and economic development sustainability.
-
Trees are effective in improving air quality and assisting with stormwater control.
-
Recreational opportunities for all ages are provided.
