V. George Mathew offers up a provocative description of the influence of climate on Environmental Psychology, He postulates that people in warmer climates tend to be lazy. People in cold climates tend to be good planners and very combative and people in temperate climates tend to be more in harmony with the environment. He discusses the pathology of a poorly planned urban environment suggesting the need for more green spaces to provide a better environment for people. I have found that a walk in a park or a nicely designed Japanese Garden reduces my stress and gives me a better prospective on the world.
