This is going to become much more prevalent in the future as water supply becomes a bigger issue (than it already is).

outlaw: I almost always agree with what you post on this forum but in my view green is clean. I have seen some of those grass free zones while traveling about and they leave me flat.
The shortage of water seems always to be advanced as a problem to be alleviated yet development continues and bottling companies help themselves without any reference to environmental impact. So which is it? (that's a rhetorical question)
Based on TV's and ARC's reaction essentially existing homeowners are being encouraged to spend more money to alter their landscapes to save water so the powers to be can make even larger profits. I suppose if a water baron wanted to stop by my place and make an offer to pay for a grass free property conversion I might listen? However, I waiting for the other shoe to drop meaning that they will mandate that landscapes be altered to save on precious water ( and return to the 2nd paragraph for a refrain) . For now I say no justice no peace
