Is That an Outlaw Lawn? Las Vegas Has a New Approach to Saving Water

apparently the new approach is to scalp lawn that is nonfunctional.

no one seems to realize that soil left uncovered will transpire water content, at the physical rate of evaporation, rather than the regulated rate of phyto transpiration.

the base of the problem is that LA is a bubble, and the maintenance cost is returning negatives.

They should shut down the golf courses first if they are so concerned about water.
