    That’s a stupid false dichotomy. Why would those be the only options. Clover is a good low growing grass substitute. You can also grow native pants in most of the space so cutting isn’t required. There are many options that aren’t grass lawns that require a ton of maintenance.

      You think if you told people they all had to get rid of their grass lawns heaps of them wouldn’t just replace them with a load of concrete if they didn’t want the maintenance? Enough people do it already without being forced to by a ban.

        Sure, some would if that were the rule. How about we ban both. The option isn’t binary.

        It is. The grasses we use for our gardens are generally native, well unless you got some exotic grass for some weird reason.

        Also, let the weeds grow! Your perfectly manicured garden looks weird and monocultures are bad!
