Today on The Environment Report.
 

There are ten times more acres of 
cropland than there are of lawns
and parks.  Rebecca Williams looks 
at how, still, with much less land, 
homeowners over-apply pesticides 
when compared to farmers.

And... so, your lawn is the worst 
on the block.  Do you cave in and 
put chemicals on it?  Julie Grant 
debates whose grass is really greener, 
and if whether chemicals or no 
chemicals really makes a difference.
