A Scientist Walks Into A Bar


Episodes feature recordings of talks given at Science on Tap events held in Portland, OR, and Vancouver, WA.

Aug 26, 2019

Can being in nature make us better? What is forest bathing, how can recess help improve student behavior, and can five minutes outside really make a difference in your mood? Listen to science writer Florence Williams talk about her book The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes Us Happier, Healthier, and More Creative and get some scientific encouragement to go outside. This talk was recorded at the Alberta Rose Theatre in Portland in March 2018.
