A well-established Pearl’s Premium lawn can decrease your
carbon footprint in four ways. This is
due to the special blend of native and long-adaptive grass seeds. Some of these seeds existed prior to the
arrival of the Native American peoples. Pearl’s
seed mix is all natural and non-GMO.
Pearl’s grass seeds are coated with Mycorrhizal Fungi, which
enhance water storage and carry nutrients to the grass roots. The grass-beneficial fungi were selected
from lab tests of 50 different types.
Less Chemicals:
you can cut your use of carbon-intensive chemicals. A Pearl's Premium lawn only
needs an organic fertilizer or composting to stay green, especially if you
leave the grass clippings.
Less Watering:
you may seldom or never need to pour drinking water on your lawn again. Pearl’s
grass grow 12-14 ‘ roots that have 30 percent more water storage capacity than
ordinary grass. Remember, most lawns are irrigated with the same water we drink
- that's energy-intensive filtered, treated, pumped and paid for.
Less Mowing: you
only need to use that polluting lawn mower once a month and not weekly, or
never if left to go to a high meadow. A typical lawn mower produces
as much carbon in an hour as a mid-sized car, fully-loaded, produces in 11
hours of driving!
More Oxygen: your
Pearl's Premium lawn, properly maintained, produces dramatically less carbon
than the typical American lawn. A university study demonstrated that fescue
grass blends like Pearl's Premium, cut 3" high, produce 5,760 times more
oxygen than carbon in 24 hours. The same study found that a bluegrass lawn, cut
one inch high, produces oxygen and carbon in a 1-to-1 ratio. It's like having
your very own carbon sink in your backyard!
