I think interacting with the natural world is good for us, almost regardless of the state of the environment.

My back yard is a complete disaster right now because it's essentially an active construction zone where my kid and multiple dogs play every day.

But if I wander outside, play some fetch, stare at some trees and clouds, listen to the birds, and feel the sun on my skin, it does some subtle subconscious stuff for the better for sure. It's even a little bit of exercise.
