I only have an acre and dont till anymore due to weed invasion and erosion.
I showed the results some time ago and how it worked with great results.
My ground cover is native horseherb.
I live in a forest and dont on purpose grow lawn grass.
My main concern is water and soil conservation and river/lake pollution.
These are my pet projects and what I spread the word on.
I only drive to Austin for work I dont make special trips there on the weekend wasting fuel.
I use glassware and metal flatware not plastic and rarely buy paper plates.
I sharpen my knives by hand with a stone not an electric sharpener.
My can opener has a hand crank not electric.
I dont wash a bath towel after every use.
I wear clothes at home more than one time if not covered in sweat.
I don't take three showers a day like many people do.
My trash can is only about 1/4 full after two weeks of trash.
I rarely eat out and cook my own food in bulk and eat on it for the week.
When I BBQ I cook a lot at one time and don't do it every weekend.
My yard plants are extremely drought friendly.
I use pesticides rarely if at all.
I don't watch TV and it hasn't been on in months using electricity.
The list could go on forever.

I dont think anyone can argue with that no matter what side of the fence they are on.
