I love mowing lawns. Put some headphones on and a good audiobook and I can mow for hours. I'm actually a little sad that I only have a small lawn now, because I can barely get into a rhythm before I'm done.

Mow your neighbors lawns I'm sure they won't mind lol

I've considered it, but they all want to mow it down to nothing and I like my grass longer

Lawns:

  1. require artificial irrigation that contributes to depletion ofvaquifers

  2. create monocultures that reduce biodiversity and harm ecosystems

  3. require maintenance that usually involves burning fossil fuels

  4. shadeless lawns contribute to warmer neighborhoods

  5. act as nitrogen sinks

Then we spread water unnecessarily all over the lawn to help it grow?

The only thing that sucks about it... is paying someone $65/week to get it done. I seriously need a zero turn mower.
