- The publication examines, experimentally, the potential of social media to aid in better understanding the impact of the natural environment on human health and well-being. This work is significant as it provides a strategy by which policy makers might frame public health messages to improve their dissemination. We show that unique features of social media, such as mass customisation, interactivity, and convenience proved beneficial to health communication and promotion efforts, and converted what would have been "private" health entries in a journal into interactive "public" disclosures and potential points of discussion.
