E. O. Wilson first described the concept of "biophilia" in his book by the same name. Ever since, the idea has fascinated social scientists and nature enthusiasts alike. What does biophilia mean to you? Can you identify moments in your life when you feel the effects of biophilia?

And now, a moment of silence for those who live in areas without convenient access to a natural environment...
I’ve been admitted to the hospital a few times for my ulcerative colitis. I was in my highest spirits when I was placed in a room with a view of a field and trees. Every day, I saw a little groundhog I named Franklin. ❤️ Nature has always brought me so much peace and comfort, even in my worst/painful times.
Aw, I am so glad Franklin was able to offer you comfort when things were difficult!
The ‘ice challenge ‘ ! You’re really becoming a dedicated youtuber!
I used to have an interior plantscaping business. We installed and maintained tropical plants in indoor settings, offices, hotels, restaurants, homes, malls, etc.. ~ The more urbanized society became, the more popular having indoor plants became. As a commercial enterprise, plantscaping started gaining ground in the 1970’s and by the late 80’s it was firmly established as a desirable component of interior spaces. I think the popularity of bringing part of nature into purely human spaces is because it acts as a counterweight to our austere, hermetically sealed, ‘air conditioned ‘, electronically lit and powered, computerized daily habitats. Plants bring life into our denatured environs. ~ More recently in vogue are living plant covered interior walls and turning previously ignored rooftops into parks and vegetable gardens for the health and enjoyment of the tenants. ~ I believe there are studies that show a correlation between plants in a work setting and employee productivity and satisfaction. ~ Anyhow, I thought you might find my experience of interest. - peace
P.S. - I came across a great video on yt called; Singapore : biophilic city on channel linda blagg. In which Prof.Tim Beatley, author of the book Biophilic Cities and Prof. Peter Newman, director of the NYU / CUSP Institute spent a week delving into the ongoing reintegration of nature into modern Singapore. There is a link to the resulting academic paper in the description of the video.
+John OBrien Gardener Hey, whatever I can do to illustrate my points 😉
I agree with your thoughts on indoor plants - I think we all know, at least in our subconscious, that we should be engaging with nature.
Hi, this is really interesting i was reading about Biophilia Effect and i come across your video it is really nice the way you explained. I doing a video about BIophilia in my regional language Tamil and this video is really useful for me. Also, i have Subscribed to your channel
Hey there!! I found your videos while looking up some information about how I can help to save the land that is being developed behind my house. There is a huge ecosystem back there that no one seems to care about but I look at it and love it and feel sooo connected to it everyday. I really appreciate the information in your videos, and I really really appreciate the work you do! I hope someday I can do what you do! Keep educating people and saving the world girl!!! 💗💗💗
That's so sweet, thank you! I really hope you're successful in your bid to save that important green space
@@TheRovingNaturalist thank you so much! :))
Great I am sharing this with my church congregation today in our worship service, it fits the fourth Sunday of Advent theme, love, bio-philia and in the NT philia is one of the four words for love.
That's wonderful! I think church is an excellent place to talk about biophilia and caring for Nature, as we humans are stewards of the Earth.
i love plant so much...
Outstanding!
I need a plant, hopefully one that'd I'd have to try hard to kill.
+Step Back History Haha, try a wax plant! I ignore mine all the time, but it's very"happy" 😉

It's pretty cool but I wouldn't wanna live there
