A Sign of Pride for Brown Lawns

Good news for the many Texans living through the drought who are letting their grass die.

A new campaign by the Central Texas Water Efficiency Network (a group of water providers and conservation advocates) allows you to show off your dying grass as a model for conservation. Free signs are now available to residents to show their pride in a thirsty lawn:

The signs “provide a great explanation for why brown is the new “green” for Central Texas lawns during the drought,” says the group’s website. You can pick up your own at several locations in  Austin, San Marcos and Round Rock. More information is available on the group’s website.
