We all know about the water saving benefit that EnvyLawn artificial grass provides, but converting to EnvyLawn can also help reduce water pollution. EnvyLawn does not require any pesticides, fertilizers, herbicides or other chemical treatments that are commonly needed for grass, but you can have an even more significant reduction on water pollution by simply having fun on the weekends rather than mowing the lawn. A study by the University of Minnesota found that “plant residues such as lawn clippings and leaves have considerable potential for pollution of lakes”
Since there is no need to mow EnvyLawn, there are no lawn clippings in the storm water runoff and this leads to lower phosphorous levels in lakes and streams. Yet another benefit from switching to EnvyLawn artificial grass!
