Before covid I liked to get up in the morning a golf, I took pride in my family’s lawn (you think I own a house this is chapo), I experimented with different types of grass seed (clover is nice to walk on), my first job was a hay farm, I honestly like grass more than gulf. The greenness of a huge cut lawn is more beautiful than any forest, in fact they complement each other. People are stewards of the earth and you don’t go outside if you think a nice mowed lawn isn’t pretty or beautiful you have no soul. A nice lawn isnt a white thing, it’s a human right to have access to them, cities are hell for not having enough greenspace.

I understand your feelings but golf courses are an insane use of resources that no one should be OK with. Think about how much water is needed to maintain one, especially in dry climates. There is a fucking golf course in Death Valley, just imagine how much water that takes every day to just maintain. Also the crazy amount of fertilizers to keep the grass green that just end up in the watershed fucking up every river and lake around it.
