This is a term I've learned from a distance learning course called the Sustainable Lawn. It refers to the industrialization of the modern lawn, from sod production, to chemical fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides to powered lawn care equipment.
Americans spend $40 billion a year on 41 million acres of lawn. This video, Gimme Green, explores some of the externalities of this fascination.
