WS 4 Landscaping p. 198 Paul DiStefano

This article was very interesting to me. It explained that lawns are absolutely pointless and that we should change the way we think about landscaping. Lawns are an endless cycle of fertilizing, watering, and energy, and serve almost no point in our lives. They have almost nothing to do with nature and are a waste of time and energy. We are wasting space, and money on an area that could be put to good, helpful, and productive use. It would be much more purposeful if we were putting that effort into maintaining a garden, or anything else that would actually make a difference. Unlike a boring lawn that serves almost no purpose except that we think it looks good.
