Environment Saving the earth: start in your backyard
The big polluters have been pointed and rules and regulations to diminish the toxic gas emissions have been put into place. Manufacturers are now targeted to ensure they lower their pollution production.
Although this is a small step in the right direction, more needs to be done to slow down and eventually stop the wastes of our natural resources. Such solutions as walking instead of taking the car for small travels are a good and healthy start. Other measures such as not letting the purified water run aimlessly or better isolation of a house to lower the fuel consumption to heat it are all small steps that have the power to make a difference in the long run.
Other measures such as only washing the dishes or the laundry for full loads can on the long run greatly reduce the exploitation of earth's resources.
Saving the earth can also be done in your own backyard. Hence, when mowing the lawn, it has been proven that by leaving the cut grass, you are saving a lot on fertilizers and you have greatly diminishing the quantity of waist you are producing. The other great benefit from not picking-up the cut grass is the time saving you can enjoy. Cut grass when left in place has the power to give back to the earth powerful and natural nutrients and a good load of natural water.
Saving the earth's resources by leaving the cut grass in place will actually give you a greener grass from the nutrients your lawn is getting back. It will also reduce or eliminate your needs for polluting pesticides and fertilizers.
After 48 hours of being cut, most of the grass will have returned to earth, this time can be faster in case of rainy weather. It has been calculated that when thrown away, grass clipping residues can account for as much as 24% of the yearly domestic trash production.
Other tricks and tips to get a greener more ecological grass include: Use a mulching land mower, have a sharp blade, cut your grass frequently but not too short. Short grass is said to favor the growth of weeds and has the power to attract more insects.
It is recommended not to mow the lawn during very hot day as the grass might dry and is more vulnerable. It is also not recommended to cut the lawn when wet or on rainy days as the paste produce can suffocate the underlying grass in the next days.
Last but not least is about watering your lawn. Most climates will provide the necessary rain and hydration so lawn watering is not something that should be automatically programmed. It is a tremendous waste of purified water when sprinklers are used during rain, a scene too frequently occurring.
