The grass growing outside our windows may hold the largest overlooked means to meeting our goal of net zero carbon emissions. Treated right, lawns will pick up where the revised climate bill that Gov. Baker recently approved leaves off. Lawns carpet our landscape. We’ve got plenty, more than 2,000 square miles in Massachusetts. Let’s put them to work, naturally.
Lawns are blamed for polluting and requiring too much water. Actually, we are at fault for spreading quick-release fertilizer and toxic chemicals. Don’t be fooled by the directions printed on bags instructing us to spread one pound per thousand square feet of lawn on Easter, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day and in the fall.
