At a certain point ya move on from wondering/arguing if their is a problem
to reguardless , am i and my actions part of it or a possible solution and do what you perceive as the right thing.
the solar panels are on the roof i installed cause thats 1 less chunk of rmp coal that needs to be burnt to power the crib
and now that its paid off thats one less needless bill to be paid although they still tax usĀ  8 bucks every month and sell our excess to the neighbors

and every drop of water we dont waste is more for lakes rivers and streams and denizens that live in them.
when the market crashed in 08 we were in a good position to buy and moved into a new place
we knew we didnt want a front lawn even though we have irrigation water rights

i think it sat that that for a year or 2 while the backyard where we spend time got done
converted the sprinklers to low flow drip/micro sprinklers
dug in a couple dry creek beds and started filling the boat with river cobble every fishing trip
using leverage bars come alongs and the durango
we moved some of the big rocks out from along the house
went to our local water conservatory district gardens for ideas and drought tolerant low sun native plants
threw in yuccas, a smoke bush hostas, poppys, mo tea, and assorted ground covers and desert grasses
and topped it off with a few yards bark/mulch
took a few years for some of it to establish and the ground covers have good seasons and not as good but rarely bad
now it looks nice has little to no maintenance other than weeding , remulching and adding a bit more ground covers every couple of years
no 2 strokes tools are required
with a fraction of water it would take for a green grass ya dont even smokes lawn
