So, it seems that the push toward efficiency is to benefit capitalists. Things used to take a long time to be made, and a long time to break (if at all). Make more things faster and cheaper means some CEO is making money, while the crappy products leave lasting pollution, and need to be replaced often, meaning CEO makes more money. That's #Crapitalism in a nutshell!

Well, this is certainly a step in the right direction.

What exactly is a "functional grass #lawn," anyway? #Grass lawns are strictly #decorative, and therefore non-functional by definition. If a patch of grass has a legitimate function, then it's not a lawn. Native #grasses for #soil #erosion prevention? Functional. #Lawns and #golf courses? Non-functional.

Note to any butthurt #golfers out there:
A golf course is *not* a legitimate function of grass. Your #GolfBall will roll just fine on any moderately flat surface. Find a way to play your #SillyGame without #KillingThePlanet, or find a new silly game. #SorryNotSorry
