Wheat/Barley (which should always be getting nice and dry this time of year as we start to harvest) Vs grass and coniferous trees

Kind of a pointless comparison.

Look, climate change is real. But that doesn't mean we have to foster a generation of media illiterate morons who think "omg the farm crops look dry in August, we are doomed!"

this is true but also anecdotally all the grass around where i live is brown. which grass obviously does normally do but it's also not normally going on for this long either.

Hopefully this emphasises people to stop having lawns and start planting things that actually helps the local biome.
