As an example, Boomers will mow their lawn in the middle of a drought. Ignore the environmental stuff, just think about only the lawn itself. This damages the lawn by worsening water loss.
The boomers will not mow their lawn any less frequently to compensate for the drought.
They will also not water extra in order to compensate for the drought.
They will also not alter their behavior and leave the lawn clippings in place to reflect a bit more sunlight and prevent some water from escaping the grass. They will bag them up and dumpster them as always.
Ignoring all environmental concerns, even from the position of “I want the best for my lawn”, Boomers are a failure.
my dad isn't even from the west and I was simply describing him (although I see the same things in boomers everywhere)
for example you can easily get an amazing lawn by fertilizing occasionally with diluted piss, as long as you live in an overall rainy area where the salts will get washed out (which is true for me and I also eat a lowish salt diet which is really just a normal salt diet because normalcy has been pathologized and addiction normalized).
Doing so also saves flush water (the dilution water is just going back into the aquifer as opposed to being mixed with sewage).
Boomers don't do this and would probably riot at the thought of someone doing this
You may have met my neighbors. :doomer:
