Lawn mowing is among the top most useless energy wasting human activities.
It's noisy (of course nobody syncs with neighbours to mow so you can be sure to hear mowing noise every day), polluting, and so fucking useless.
Leaving the lawn to grow out for more than three weeks makes it pretty unusable, especially for our dogs, with giant weeds (with spikes that hurt the dogs' legs) and thistle bushes and whatnot, and when you do mow it takes 2-3 times as long and the mower tends to get clogged up a bunch, and you need to extra careful about not hitting a rabbit or other nest, which might have been built in your yard because the weeds got so deep.
When I do mow I do try to leave some patches of clover for bees, though, and let some thistle plants grow in a few clumps.
I do wish people wouldn't obsessively mow and poison their lawns with weed killer to keep their lawns only consisting of grass, though. Nothing wrong with dandelions and clover and the occasional thistle.
As for polluting, I use a plug-in electric mower, so it doesn't really pollute much. I do wish electric mowers were the norm.
This is not considered a fire hazard here, but yeah we do not have that many trees close to the house.
Edit: I'm not particularly attached to grass. If clover took over and pushed the grass out, I wouldn't be upset about it.
Another edit: A clover lawn also might not be durable enough for the usage much my yard gets.
This is an interesting word choice to use as pollinators approach endangerment.
Akin to suggesting that deer hunting season should be extended until there are no longer any deer near roadways in FL.
I use a push mower, about once a week (and I leave the clippings on the lawn). It's really enjoyable.
Not for everyone, but sure an interesting solution.
