如果你想活得更久，那就生活在绿色中吧。

That’s the simple conclusion of the largest analysis ever performed on the relationship between the environment and human longevity—ever. Eight million people. Seven countries. One simple finding:

这是迄今为止对环境和人类寿命之间关系进行的最大规模分析得出的简单结论。数据来自7个国家的800万人。结论很简单：

“When you are exposed to greenery or greenness around your home, your probability to die . . . is less compared to those with less green-ness around their home,” says David Rojas, researcher at the Barcelona Institute for Global Health and Colorado State University, and lead author of the study, which was published in The Lancet Planet Health (PDF) in collaboration with the World Health Organization.

巴塞罗那全球健康研究所和科罗拉多州立大学的研究员David Rojas是这项研究的第一作者，他说：“当你置身绿意盎然的环境中时，你的死亡概率…比家里绿色少的人更小。”这项研究是和世界卫生组织共同完成的，研究结果发表在《The Lancet Planet Health》（PDF）上。

Specifically, the research team found that for every 10% increase in vegetation that’s within 1,600 feet of your home, your probability of death drops by 4%.
