A new study found that doing things to help the environment, like picking up rubbish, using less plastic, or walking instead of driving, can make people just as happy as doing fun things like hobbies.
Michael Prinzing, a researcher at Baylor University in Texas, studied how eco - friendly(对生态友好的)activities affect happiness.
“Many people think it's hard to live in an eco - friendly way because it means giving up comfort or convenience(便利),” Prinzing said. “But helping others and being eco - friendly can actually make life more fun. ”
In the study, 545 college students in the US were divided into three groups. One group did eco - friendly activities, another group did fun activities, and the third group just had a common day. After two days, people in both the eco - friendly group and the fun activity group felt much happier than those in the third group.
These studies suggest that helping the planet can make people feel good. Each study only lasted for a few days, so more research is needed to see if the effects last longer. Anyway, doing something good for the planet could make your day better!
