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.
