Experts promote concepts of green living in city spaces

Building a green living environment is not just about parks and trees, according to experts at the Ninth Global Conference on Health Promotion in Shanghai on Monday.

"A green lifestyle in urban areas is not only about taking walks in parks, but also about maintaining good health and enjoying a low-carbon life," said Gong Peng, professor of global change ecology at Tsinghua University.

"Cities can be greener if people eat healthy food, think positively, have a sense of happiness and support each other."
