DESCRIPTION

In Italy and especially in the whole of Europe, the lack of doing exercise-especially in a naturalenvironment–has resulted in the increase of obesity inchildren and youth (major health problemin developed countries) and in the increased level of inactivity and the incorrect use of old and newtechnology.But the sport itself is not enough.According to researcher Richard Louv the progressive detachmentfrom nature experienced bychildren growing up in cities can cause nature deficiency disorder. In his book called the “LastChild in the Wood” the author finds that children prefer watching TV rather than parks and outdoorgames. They are even afraid of playing outdoors, so they get sick of various diseases, includingallergies, obesity, behavioral disorders, attention deficit, hyperactivity, depression and somemanifestations of autism.
