Driveways and roads are impervious surfaces. When it rains, water collects chemicals and other pollutants and carries it along the surface. Then that polluted water eventually enters the ground or a large body of water, which harms living organisms. #apeswater@franklinlorax
Rather than being thrown out, grass clippings can be used as composting material, which means that instead of ending up in a landfill, they can be used to grow food and resources
