Green In Every Sense
Laying a lawn is also very good for the environment. Not only do expanses of lush green grass look beautiful, adding a calming and beautiful backdrop to your house or development. It is also an ecological asset as 250 square metres of lawn absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and releases enough oxygen for a family of four. Grass traps and removes dust and dirt from the air and also acts as a natural water filter, reducing pollution in rainfall as it passes through the turf.
It can also make you feel better. Your heart rate can reduce by up to 8% and blood pressure by up to 6% by standing on grass rather than carpet. And on hot days what could be better than standing barefoot on cool lush grass – it is so much cooler than concrete or tarmac.
