Abstract
Given the value of natural environments for climate change solutions and human health, public support for preserving and restoring natural ecosystems is important. One avenue to such support is to increase connection to nature, so it is important to understand factors that influence this characteristic. In the context of Songs for Nature workshops, we examined whether online and outdoor nature contact increase nature connection in a similar manner. Results indicated that online workshops also improved mood, but they did not significantly increase nature connection ratings. Outdoor workshops improved both nature connection and mood. This suggests that both online and outdoor environmental programs can influence emotions but outdoor experiences in natural settings may be necessary to strengthen nature connection.
