Your campus library should have a couple of textbooks titled: "Environmental Psychology" which would have plenty of material for you.  The three leading ones with this title are by Gifford, by Bell, Fisher, Baum, & Greene, and by McAndrew.  You might also find a book called "Ecopsychology" by Roszak that has material on psychology and the wilderness.

The journal, "Environment and Behavior" might be in your library--another good source of relevant studies for your talk.

Tipsters,

Help! In an impulsive moment I agreed to speak to our campus environmental group about psychology and the environment (at least I didn't get too specific).  Now time is running short and I'm having a heck of a time finding sources.  Possible topics would include beneficial effects of outdoor experiences, etc.  Any help would earn my eternal gratitude.

Thanks,
Fen
