And that’s again one of the terms that I forgot to mention before when that young woman had died, the two boys’ mother, that the Grandmother told them that if they ever missed their mother, all...

Lawns cover 40 million acres, or 2%, of land in the US, making them the single largest irrigated crop we grow. Lawns are mowed, raked, fertilized, weeded, chemically treated, and watered —sucking up time, money, and other resources. Lawns provide little benefit to wildlife, and are often harmful.

When we think of habitat loss, we tend to imagine bulldozers and rutted dirt, but acres of manicured lawn a...
