There is evidence to suggest that exposure to nature is beneficial for people. Studies have shown that nature exposure is able to increase positive affect and state levels of generosity while decreasing negative affect (Weinstein, Przybylski, & Ryan, 2009). The primary aim of this research was to examine whether nature exposure could increase cooperation in an environmental context. To measure participants' cooperation, a fishing commons dilemma was employed where participants chose between the community benefit (restraining harvesting to possibly sustain the resource) and immediate self-interest (harvesting for quick profit). Participants (N = 111) were randomly assigned to view either a nature or an urban video. The participants exposed to nature harvested less per round and sustained the resource for longer, thus demonstrating cooperation. However, this relationship did not depend on nature relatedness, trust, or affect. These results may provide an insight into how we can more effectively manage environmental resources.
