Save the environment by NOT doing a bullshit chore? Sounds like a fuckin win to me. I already wasn't going to, but now I can feel smug about it.
While your on it don't cut your grass for more of that.
Way ahead of you bud.
The fact that you don't weed is also good. Barring invasive species most weeds are native species that local fauna rely on.
If I'd bought a home in ohio where I grew up i wanted to look into mint as ground cover and plant some wild strawberries.
"why are all these centipedes and beetles in the house all of a sudden? Why are we getting so many mice?"
(Leaf litter is cover for lots of things)
Oh well in that case we may as well continue contributing to environmental collapse.
Yes. We want more bugs. They are very important for many ecosystems.
Ok? Yea dude, bugs exist. You’re gunna be ok. We survived just fine without windows or doors for how long but a single house centipede or spider shows and we’re like “not in MY house” like, brother chill.
