Turfgrasses provide many benefits to the environment including carbon dioxide sequestering, reduction of wind and water erosion, and cooling of the environment. In spite of these documented benefits, there is increasing pressure to reduce the use of grasses — primarily to reduce the water requirements of urban areas. In many settings, turfgrass is watered much more than is required to maintain turf quality, often because of older irrigation systems or failure to understand how to water the grass. However, there are choices that can be made in species and cultivars to reduce water usage.
