Does this club promote mostly rock lawns with shrubs? Do they feel that all of the grass lawns using pesticides and needing watering are harmful to the environment and would they encourage people to not have grass lawns?

GracieGirl, Rather than ASSume you know what PRESERVE THE ENVIRONMENT discussion group is about, you may perhaps like to ask the question, "What is the Mission of this new group?" To which we would answer, "* offer educational opportunities on a variety of topics relating to recycling, sustainability, and the environment; * involve citizens, academia, business, and government in programs; and * provide networking opportunities for brainstorming and collaboration on actions". You may find it useful to ask questions FIRST before offering your OWN answer. Let me know if you have any other questions. Queen
