You can find the original post called “The Moss Lawn: a Suburban Solution to Global Warming” in Adventures in Suburbia March 17, 2021. I hear from people interested in the concept so I thought I would give you an update and some pictures.
We were at my mom’s house in late Nov and early Dec. The moss is as thick as ever. We had one inch of snow. It lasted one day in the rest of the neighborhood and 1 week on the insulating cushion of moss in my mom’s yard.
The awards validating my mom’s participation in the fight against global warming continue to pour in. The insulating qualities of the moss in her yard has created an Arctic microclimate. So far when the polar bears visit they just pass through. We think that it is because there are not yet enough seals around to hold their attention. You can be sure that I will keep you up to date a on any further developments.
