According to US Department of Transportation. 276 million vehicles registered in the USA that means 91% of households have access to a vehicle. This is largely attributed to the fact that 50% of the population live in low density suburban neighborhoods and therefore depend on a vehicle to be able to get around. American Suburbia has grown exponentially since the post war era which was meant to elevate the housing crisis at the time, new building techniques made it fast & cheap to make mass produced homes, By the 1950s the landscape of America changed drastically from people working in industrial cities and then being able to afford what looked like a luxurious life in the suburbs. These suburban designs have not changed much over the last decades due to strict zoning laws which encouraged developers to leave out side walks, making these neighborhoods even more car dependent. The result is suburban sprawl, where all houses are equally spaced apart with large green open spaces to give the illusion of country living. These green spaces often consist of mono-cultures of lawns, which cover over 50 million acres in the USA. The lawns also come with ordinances that force the homeowner to regularly cut their lawns and refusal to do can result in receiving a penalty. Keeping the lawn neat and tidy is a huge industry, in 2020 Americans spent a staggering $105 billion on lawn care. But even more shocking is how the lawn has created biological desert zones, A study of residential lawns at National Science Foundation found that lawn maintenance is contributing to a continental-scale ecological homogenization. One million species on planet face extinction, U.N. report says. And humans will suffer as a result. However several states in the USA are making an effort to turn this around, starting in the gardens of American citizens. In this video we are going to show you how and why the American suburbs are bringing back biodiversity to their neighborhoods to help save the planet. Leading the way are the states with suburbs and cities in the desert, Las Vegas in Nevada and California, but is it enough and are they doing it correctly?
