I really hope my generation can kill off the concept of a "lawn". Growing a mono-cultured weed in a desert just so that you can have a Saturday morning chore is utterly baffling to me.
- warcher 4y agoit will not make a lick of difference and I like my kids to have someplace to play outside.
- wyre 4y agoThere’s a lot of room between a grass yard and a safe yard for children to play in
- recursive 4y agoKilling the entire concept seems to be a solution too big for the problem. There are plenty of places where lawns require zero additional irrigation.
- rootusrootus 4y agoMost yards are just natural local grass. A relatively small number of people put in extra effort to make it a monoculture, but most just let it settle into whatever the local grass variety is, and then mow it periodically. And in the desert, most people don't have grass lawns.
