European Walking Day
28 September @ 08:00 – 17:00
Motto for 2024 “We listen to nature“
When you walk and hike in nature do you listen to NATURE? Did you think that sound can help us understand environmental change?
Sounds are omnipresent in nature and many species’ life depends on their acute hearing. Humans are part of nature, and this means that we also pay attention to sounds.
Listening to nature sounds offers a myriad of benefits encompassing biological, psychological, and neurological realms. However, we can also shut down what we listen to if our emotions or worldviews don’t agree with what we are hearing.
