My hometown’s newspaper just published an opinion piece about the disastrous effects, ecologically and financially, that lawn care causes. Not totally surprising but it’s important to note that this is a retirement community in the bible belt!

Y’all, it’s working! Keep spreading the word!

    But look on the bright side: when/if the no lawn movement gains momentum those same people will jump on the bandwagon to conform with their neighbors.

    Public shame is a much stronger motivator than personal morality. Especially for limousine liberals. Once we get to the point where rich suburbanites replace grass with native plants or xeriscapes to look good for their neighbors, we’ve won.
