I think she’s speaking from the perspective of a dedicated pristine pure-grass lawn owner, they don’t care if it has little bugs on it or if its soft to walk on because bugs and walking on it ruins the “perfection.” She’s not like suggesting astroturf or concrete as a viable alternative

We’re part of the solarpunk community so I’d bet money all of us are solidly Astroturf-haters. I love me some little bugs, especially a nice backyard that has a mix of different plants, like clover and sorrel, maybe some patches of moss in the shady areas… bees hanging out on the dandelions and violets, big grass spiders zipping away from your feet, little leaf hoppers springing into the air… that’s the good shit man
