| - Richard Louv (1949) és un periodista i assagista estatunidenc. Ha escrit una desena de llibres publicats en 24 països sobre la necessitat humana de naturalesa. És conegut sobretot pel seu setè llibre, Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children From Nature-Deficit Disorder (Algonquin Books, 2005), en el qual investiga la relació dels infants i la natura en el moment actual i al llarg de la història. Louv va crear el terme «trastorn de dèficit de natura» per a descriure les possibles conseqüències negatives per a la salut individual i el teixit social derivades del fet que els infants romanguin sempre en espais interiors i s'allunyin del contacte físic amb el món natural, sobretot privant-se d'una experiència genuïna, informal i solitària, tot reivindicant aquesta connexió amb la natura com un dret humà. Louv cita investigacions que apunten trastorns d'atenció, obesitat, reducció de la creativitat i depressió com a problemes associats a una infància deficient en natura. Va obtenir informació sobre el tema de part de professionals de diferents disciplines abans de presentar les seves conclusions, i se li atribueix el fet d'inspirar un moviment internacional per a reintroduir la vivència dels infants a la natura. També ha reivindicat l'ecologització de les ciutats i el disseny arquitectònic i urbà biofílic, és a dir, aquell que incorpora elements naturals al lloc de treball a les escoles, als hospitals i a les llars.

Louv cites research pointing to attention disorders, obesity, a dampening of creativity and depression as problems associated with a nature-deficient childhood. He amassed information on the subject from practitioners of many disciplines to make his case, and is commonly credited with helping to inspire an international movement to reintroduce children to nature.
