Giving up using plastic bags will do more good for the enviroment, than stopping watering your lawn!

My reason for ditching the lawn is because I consider lawns unattractive and artificial-looking. By artificial I mean that literally, not figuratively. They look like under-trimmed astroturf. And they might as well be, for all you can do with them, which is absolutely nothing. They serve no function at all, and they require a lot of maintenance. You can't pick up a patch of St. Augustine or Zoysa and stick it in a vase to decorate the dining room table. You can't pluck a few blades to crumble into your pasta sauce.
Unfunctional green stuff on sand is as attractive to me as mildew stains on the ceiling is to pretty much everyone.
