Default Human Nature - OT

Hi all

Not so much garden as outdoor related.

My daughter is currently in London at UCL and her accommodation is in a
less green area of the city.
I was encouraging her to get on a bus to somewhere (not necessarily
outside the city) where there was greenery around e. g. Regents Park.
She was not totally averse to the idea.

The question it posed is:

Is it part of human nature to feel the need for greenery?
Or have I been conditioned to value it by my parents/grandparents and
passed this conditioning on to my daughter?
