WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT TO BE LAWN-AWARE?

WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT TO BE LAWN-AWARE?


FOR YOUR OWN HEALTH

FOR THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY

FOR THE HEALTH OF THE NATION

FOR THE HEALTH OF THE WORLD

BECAUSE LAWNS ARE JUST THE EMBODIMENT OF A BAD TRIP! (In a way, lawns are like a drug. Just a very, very bad one!)

BECAUSE LAWNS ARE JUST PLAIN STUPID! Or rather, unless you have absolutely NO choice in the matter, maintaining one over 49-64 square feet sure is!

One could argue that the 50-60 square feet lawn might be necessary for a while for people to overcome their lawn-withdrawal syndrome. It's like cigarettes, caffeine, soda pop, cheese, fast foods, hydrogenated oils or refined carbohydrates -- we all know they are bad for us, but we can't help... All we can do is keep the habit under control...

FOR MORAL REASONS - Once you realize what incredible WASTE of everything lawns are, you might not even be able to stand on one without revulsion!

BECAUSE ALL LIVING BEINGS WILL THANK YOU FOR IT! These things are so POISONOUS that usually only 3 species of very, very resistant grasses manage to survive there! (Of course, that's actually the idea... Quite a crazy one, once you think about it!)

Do you see gophers, squirrels, bugs, wildflowers, worms or anything alive on a "well-maintained" lawn? You don't! Why? They are all dead! They simply can't survive there... It's a wonder that your children actually manage it!

Just remember next time you order a good chemical bath for your lawn that these critters might not end being the only one doing the dying...

Pr Dr Otto Warburg, the only physician to ever get not one but TWO Nobel Prizes in his field, whose specialty was cancer, was very wary of lawns. And he died in 1970, when the average lawn was much, much less deadly than it is nowadays... More, he refused to eat anything that wasn't grown where his "lawn" would have been, in his own organic and sustainable garden, or the organic garden of someone he knew and trusted.

Did Dr Warburg perhaps understand something that still escapes most of us?

Think of it!


With time, the present post will get lots of development and data. There are so many reasons why maintaining lawns is just stupid, irrational and, in a way, well, plain evil, that it's hard to even start anywhere. This was just a quick overview...

LAWNS... THE THINGS YOU WANT TO GET RID OFF!
