The movement to reduce the use of lawns and to minimize the environmental damage they inflict
The lawn is a deeply rooted "need" in the minds of most Americans, but we have been advocates of "less lawn" for some time. There are lawns that are useful (for playing sports, for pets, for kids) and then there is the landscape filler; broad emerald green swaths of land dedicated to nothing but grass for the sake of grass... because it would be (somehow) weird not to have a lawn. An article in the Journal News takes a look at the lawn and some slowly changing attitudes.
"Scientists say these lawns come at considerable environmental cost, and for at least a decade there have been efforts to rein them in."
