YSK the state of Western water in this drought
If you completely eliminated every single residential lawn in every city from Denver to Phoenix to Los Angeles, you would save less than 5% of the Colorado river's flow. Taking aim at summer alfalfa irrigation yields 4x to 5x the water savings of tearing out every lawn in the American West.
Why YSK: my neighborhood is turning into a wasteland of dead grass and trees, unnecessarily. We have plenty of water but it is wasted by an entitled few
