17、e planted was connected with significant reductions in non-accidental and cardiovascular (心血管的) mortality (死亡率). Evidence pointing to a connection between exposure to nature and lower mortality is obvious. Between 1990 and 2019, Friends of Trees planted 49,246 street trees. The research team looked

18、at the number of trees planted in a given area in the past 5, 10 or 15 years.
