The cosmetic use of herbicides and its total disregard of the consequences is but one illustration of our human folly. Cat piss precludes the cultivation of cottage gardens in the urban setting, but there they have nice green lawns. Sadly, some of the outports, are trying to mimic this stupidity. Where are the sheep and goats that used to mow the "lawns:" !! Don't go there looking for flowers unless they are the product of the local super-market , where all seeds are strictly under the control of the mercenaries. such as Monsanto.
