LOCAL STORY
More trees, less to mow seems like a win-win
(Houston,
TX)- The public agency that maintains local flood channels believes it
can trim its $4.8 million annual mowing bill simply by using shade to
make the grass grow more slowly. Tax money has paid for the planting of
tens of thousands of trees this decade to cast that shade on channel
banks, allowing longer waits between mowings.
