Abstract/Contents: | Discusses water conservation in the Midwestern United States, stating that "water-related issues are no longer relegated to the arid west, a fact made clear by the media coverage of the Atlanta [Georgia] water crisis [in] fall [2007]...Analogus situations exist in some of Wisconsin's population centers." Suggests that "the largest issue facing the green industry...is overcoming the negative public opinion on the impact of turfgrass areas on the environment." Highlights water conservation presentations given at the 2007 National Turfgrass Research Conference and mentions research conducted at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. |
