Controlled burns are unironically based and a good way to cut down on old biomass that can cause these huge uncontrollable wildfires
Ahh, the Gipper strikes again. Famously an expert Economist, Rocket Scientist, and “totally not a racist”
One of my favorites!
I mean if you want to talk about sequestering carbon, there’s all sorts of natural lawn options that aren’t actively planting an invasive species that has proven to be really bad at doing any sort of water filtration or absorption. In fact, I’d wager that planting (and letting grow) prairie or whatever your native biome supports probably sequesters more carbon, assuming your native ecosystems aren’t straight up desert. Even if they are, you’re now using so much less water that it’s a huge net win there.
