Abstract/Contents: | Discusses water conservation in the United States, suggesting it "is one of the most important issues facing the United States and the landscape industry." Briefly explains methods various regions may be employing, reporting that "municipalities and states [are] paying residents to replace turf and plant materials with hardscapes or synthetic alternatives, as well as restricting the ability to install new landscapes and parks surrounding new housing and office developments." Suggests that "water conservation and smart use of this resource should be a concern of each and every one of us no matter the size, scope and location of...business." |
