When did Americans become obsessed with their lawns, and how were they duped into believing that lawns needed massive overfeeding and unnecessary chemicals? Environmental Historian Ted Steinberg joins us to discuss these issues and his new book American Green: The Obsessive Quest for the Perfect Lawn. Later on the show: Having trouble replacing plant-starving, house-staining wood mulch with plant feeding, weed-killing compost? Mike McGrath will explain where to find the very best compost for your landscape, often for free! (Broadcast Date: May 11, 2006)(P) and ©2006 WHYY-FM
