  • Get Outside and Thrive
    GET OUTSIDE AND THRIVE THE MENTAL HEALTH BENEFITS OF SPENDING TIME OUTSIDE, NATURE AND MOVEMENT WHY DOES GETTING OUTSIDE MATTER? ¡ Researchers at Harvard Medical School have found that time spent in nature can drastically impact mental health ¡ Ecotherapy has shown a strong connection between time spent in nature and reduced stress, anxiety, and depression. ¡ Walking has been proven effective in reducing anxiety and depression, and there is further evidence that walking in nature improves those results even further. That’s because different parts of our brain activate in nature. Our mind calms, leading to physical changes including a reduction in heart rate and blood pressure and a drop is cortisol levels ¡ Nature Walks have been described as the easiest self help strategy available to support mental health. HOW MUCH TIME OUTSIDE IS NEEDED TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE? ¡ 20 minutes 3 times a week is enough to show a consistent reduction in stress as measured by cortisol levels. ¡ Any natural environment should help – the goal is to get away from the high stimulation levels of urban environments ¡ Find a time and space that works for you ¡ Consider making this a (safe) social time with family members or your support pod – evidence suggests the greatest mental health benefits come from group nature walks ¡ Any outdoor activity can help – a gentle walk, brisk hike, bike ride or run all help reduce stress levels ¡ Any green space will have a positive impact if “escape to the country” isn’t an option. WHERE CAN I GET OUTSIDE? ¡ For local walks our Lemon Road neighbourhoods are blessed with options – there are short and long trails along Pimmit Run at the back of the school property, multiple green spaces and parks in Pimmit Hills and behind the library and the High School allows walkers to use the trails around the school property and across the fields.

  • Testimony in Public Hearing of The
    Statement to Fairfax County Environmental Quality Advisory Council Betsy Martin, Friends of Little Hunting Creek and Northern Virginia Trash Action Work Force1 January 10, 2018 In Fairfax County’s new environmental vision, solid waste management is one of seven areas identified by the Board of Supervisors as priorities. Yet, EQAC’s most recent report offers only three recommendations on solid waste management (on improving recycling, illegal dumping, and a statewide container redemption fee). “Litter” is mentioned once in the report. I’m glad EQAC continues “to recommend a statewide container redemption fee to reduce litter and increase the recovery of containers in a form that can be recycled.” However, you demur, writing “This recommendation requires action at the General Assembly and cannot be addressed by County staff.” Please recommend actions the County can take on litter, not just actions it cannot. The need for action is great. The Friends of Little Hunting Creek and Senator Scott Surovell have conducted annual cleanups of the creek since 2002, as part of the Potomac Watershed Cleanup sponsored by Alice Ferguson Foundation. Since the Friends started keeping records in 2006, volunteers have picked up 3,343 bags of trash and recyclables, 258 tires, 177 shopping carts, and tons of additional bulk trash. On average, this is about 257 bags, 20 tires, and 14 shopping carts per cleanup. These figures do not include cleanups conducted by others, for example, the Boy Scouts annually pick up trash just downstream of the Route 1 bridge (60 bags this year, according to newspaper reports). Little Hunting Creek is but one of the tributaries that discharge Fairfax County’s litter into the Potomac River.
