Good thinking.

I "walk the walk" I cut my own grass with a relatively non-polluting ELECTRIC lawn mower. And I use small amounts of natural fertilizer and water by hand only sparingly and avoid all the overwatering and maintenance hassles of those dumb pop-up sprinkler heads. And I PLANTED trees 5 years ago. Love my trees! Shade in the summer.
......And I play sports, not golf, which is just a BIG pool table with huge social and environmental costs and little return in healthful exercise. Also to play the bigger courses other than Pitch and Putt, you have to take a driver and wrack and whack your knees, hips, and back in an unnatural motion. With Pitch and Putt, you avoid that extreme golf swing.
