Abstract

We, humans, frequently find ourselves submerged in a world shaped by computer screens, concrete jungles, and unyielding schedules in the rush and bustle of modern life. However, behind the din of development, there remains a basic reality that is all too frequently disregarded: our innate bond with the natural world. This editorial challenges you to go on a voyage of self-discovery as you investigate the idea of biophilia and its significant effects on human welfare. It is becoming more and more important to embrace biophilia as we move through a time of increased urbanization and technological growth. It is an appeal to preserve the essential relationship that exists between people and the environment since doing so opens the door to the possibility of a happier, healthier future. Come along as we explore the depths of biophilia—uncovering its history, appreciating its importance, and discovering the transformative potential it offers to both individuals and civilizations.
