We really don’t think nature has much to offer us these days. If there’s no Wi-Fi, we’re not interested. And if you don’t believe it, check out this stat . . .
According to a new report, a quarter of Americans admit they spend at least 21 hours a day indoors. But the truth is WAY more of us do. We just don’t realize it.
The average person in the survey estimated that they’re inside 66% of the time. But it’s actually 90% when you include the time you spend sleeping.
66% would mean you spend 8 hours a day outside. For most of us, that would only be possible if you work outdoors, or you’re retired on a beach somewhere.
25% of people ESTIMATED that they spend 21 to 24 hours a day inside. 41% said between 15 and 20 hours. And 34% said less than that.
So all this REALLY shows is that most of us don’t realize how much time we spend inside. Previous studies have shown we spend about 87% of our time indoors. Or 93% if you also count the time you spend in your car.
