    Golf is singled out because of how much larger that dead zone is. It’s a massive stretch if dead space that requires water, fertilizers and pesticides while offering little benefit for most people.

    GOLF. IS. BAD. FOR. THE. ENVIRONMENT.

      water, fertilizers and pesticides

      It doesn’t require these things, that’s just what people are accustomed to. And there’s no need to shout. I studied ecology with a focus on watersheds, I know exactly how bad chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and irrigation can be. I still think your priorities are off.
