Ethical Revolution<p><strong>More Green Space Could Cut Deaths in Poor Areas</strong></p><p>A study led by Queen’s University Belfast has found that more green space in the UK’s most deprived neighbourhoods could significantly reduce the number of preventable deaths. </p><p>Currently the most deprived urban areas in England, Northern Ireland and Scotland have the lowest provision of green space. Only in Wales was green space distributed equitably across neighbourhoods.</p><p>The study found that with each 1% increase of green space in England, there was a 37% decrease in annual count of preventable deaths in the most deprived neighbourhoods.</p><p>Step ‘N’ in my 26 steps from A-Z to a Better World is <a href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/natural-nourishment/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nourish Nature</a> and it points to further research that backs this up and highlights the importance for all of us to seek out more time in nature.</p><p>The study also found 37% and 41% decreases in preventable deaths over 5 years in Northern ireland and Scotland respectively.</p><p>The lead author of <a href="https://jech.bmj.com/content/early/2024/10/03/jech-2024-222485" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">this study</a> is Dr Ngan Tran, who said, “We believe these findings emphasise the importance of prioritising investment in urban green space within the most deprived areas, which can help address two issues – inequality in distribution of green space and preventable deaths.”</p> <p><a href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/more-green-space-could-cut-deaths-in-poor-areas/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">[Via Ethical Revolution]</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/tag/england/" target="_blank">#England</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/tag/green-space/" target="_blank">#GreenSpace</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/tag/nature/" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/tag/nature-toot/" target="_blank">#NatureToot</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/tag/northern-ireland/" target="_blank">#NorthernIreland</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/tag/scotland/" target="_blank">#Scotland</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/tag/wales/" target="_blank">#Wales</a></p>

New research suggests that flooding can be detained using low-tech, nature-based solutions, like natural infrastructure in dryland streams (NIDS), rock detention structures and green infrastructure.…”<br><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/GIS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GIS</span></a> <a
