Daily blog: It’s April 11th, 2021, and there seems to be a bit of common sense left in the nation, in Las Vegas of all places. Water officials there want to ban grass that nobody walks on from public areas. This is a great idea, after all, the city is located in a desert.
And while I am not in favor of banning grass on private land. I am in favor of their citizens coming together to say no to grass in their yards.
For years, politicians in cities like Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and San Fran have talked about protecting the environment, but they never do it using common sense. The only ideas coming from them involve giving up freedom and money to their big corporate donors who promise to make the planet safe for us all.
And to be truthful, it’s hard for me to take advice from politicians in a city like Los Angeles, which is only capable of naturally providing water for 100,000 people. They only exist today because they destroyed the Owens Valley by diverting water from it, thus eliminated it as a viable farming community.
San Franciso politicains are hypocrites as well. They had to destroy area wetlands to even exist.
So, to save the planet, use your own common sense. To destroy it, give up your responsibility to a bought and paid for politician.
