I’ve never understood this…morally obscene because 50 to 70 percent of domestic water use is spent watering lawns? It isn’t like we can move extra water from Vermont to California or Saudi Arabia. What difference does it make if Bob wants to spend a small fortune to jeep his grass green? As long as his locality isn’t under water restrictions I really don’t care how Bob cares for his lawn.
