    I've always been very much in favor of naturally sustainable lawns! I think that, in hot, dry environments, constantly watering a lawn just to have it eventually die in the heat is ridiculous. And anyone putting enough water into a lawn to keep it alive is disgustingly wasteful. I'm so glad that people are finally letting go of the conventional grassy lawn and moving in a more natural and sustainable direction.

      Indeed. I also think even in states that aren't arid, it's important to not waste water on your lawn. However, it seems that sort of landscaped lawn culture is still really prevalent in suburbia, unfortunately. Hopefully the whole drought situation on the west coast has sort or reinvigorated this move to natural landscaped yards.
