Refuse to Use Chemlawn – Be Truly Green
Lawns are where families play, picnic and relax. Over the past fifty years, the plush green lawn has become the pride of suburban America. With the aid of sophisticated marketing strategies backed by millions of dollars in advertising, the lawn care and pesticide industry has successfully created the desire for “the perfect lawn”. More importantly, the industry has succeeded in convincing many Americans that to have a green and healthy lawn, one needs to use an arsenal of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers.

Residents are taking the Be Truly Green: Refuse to Use ChemLawn campaign to their neighborhoods by setting up outreach campaigns to educate their communities on the dangers of lawn pesticides. www.refusetousechemlawn.org
