Sometimes being environmentally friendly/conscious is out of people's price range.
#Just something to keep in my mind...#we need to fight to hold the biggest polluters accountable: corporations#and maybe stop haranguing poor people who literally don't have that extra dollar to spend on a green-washed product#I wish I could eliminate all of the lawn/grass from my property... but it costs a small fortune to turn disgusting turf into permaculture#but plants seeds beds soil equipment is all so expensive#I got some trees and raspberries from out local department of soil and water conversation's annual sale for much cheaper than any nursery..#my friends bought me a 5 foot spruce tree a couple years ago... it was $500#enough clover seed to cover half an acre costs $60... and it will only really take if I could've afford to have all the grass/lawn removed#wildflower seeds for 100 square feet were $30.#none of this stuff is going to grow if I can't protect it from the overpopulated herds of vermin town deer#fencing is incredibly expensive and literally nothing else works#they ate all the new growth off my Spruce tree the first year and stunted its growth#I have bolts of tulle handed down to me and I've had to wrap my trees for fuck's sake in netting so they don't get destroyed#like okay... I absolutely loathe grass lawns but I understand why people have them#they're impossible to get rid of unless you're incredibly wealthy
