For this month’s episode of [*You Make Me Sick*](https://soundcloud.com/user-585965810), we broke from our usual discussion of things that might harm your health to talk about an exposure that might help your health. Specifically we talked with journalist and advocate [Richard Louv](http://richardlouv.com/) about the ways in which exposure to green spaces can affect your health. Mr. Louv, author of *Last Child in the Woods* and *The Nature Principle* and founder of the non-profit [Children and Nature Network](http://www.childrenandnature.org/), sat down with us to discuss the need to design nature rich lives and the future of environmentalism.
