We are soooooooo grateful we learned about Localscapes! Our yard is now beautiful, functional, lower-maintenance, and requires significantly less water. We live on a main road in Salt Lake City and often see people pull over and take pictures of our new yard. Thank you for all you did to put this program together! My favorite thing ever is driving around the valley and seeing yards that obviously particiapted in the program and the beautiful resulting landscape. What an inspiration!
I've personally benefitted from this program over the last year and taken every class they offer. As a new homeowner, having this (FREE!) resource to guide me through landscape design concepts has been so helpful. Not only can I save water (and $ off my water bill), but I was taught how to create activity zones that will add function and value to my home. Thank you!!!
The general societal shift towards a mindset set around both one's own success, but also the success of the environment around them is what makes me proud of where we're heading! Powerful talk
Those successes are intrinsically linked and cannot be separated. As the environment crumbles, so does all the success everyone gains from that very same environment. The environment *is* the base of, and responsible for literally *all of humanities successes.*
Great job Cynthia! This is so needed for the intermountain west. Thanks for devoting your time to creating a doable process that just makes sense. We are loving our Localscape!
I was lead here by your FB post on ClickFunnels group and I'm here to tell you you're awesome!! This is very informative!! Keep it up and may you help more people with this passion of yours.. :)
We are very impressed with this TED Talk. Will it be fascinating if everybody got together in their neighborhoods and helped to flow their Landscapes into each other? It would be lovely if more than one person planted flowers and shrubs and trees with animals and insects in mind.
The real problem here is not one of design, as we can see that is very easy to work around. The real problem is that there are so many people who really are too lazy-brained and destruction-oriented to care about the world they live in. People need to take a good hard look at themselves and why they insist on being destructive toward their own home/planet.
You ask a fair question. This talk is from a public water agency that has to get a couple million people to learn to use water more sustainably or risk having insufficient supply to avert future water crises. The method takes some bedrock design concepts and turns them on them upside down to produce solutions that can be implemented by the average homeowner. It's a problem that we've been trying to solve in the western United States, with varying degrees of success, for more than 20 years but this particular method is achieving the measurable results that have previously eluded us. Our classes are free and we earn no income from this but, if it catches on, it could save billions of gallons of water and taxpayer dollars without substantially altering the character of our communities. I could only wish I were earning a big paycheck from all of this! The major beneficiary here is the public.
I found this *very* informative. It teaches homeowners how to change a boring, water-thirsty, high-maintenance, and generally unattractive landscape and turn it into something beautiful, functional, low-maintenance, and water-wise landscaping design. Not sure how this isn't "informative". Also, as a Utah native, I'd love to see all Utah homeowners apply these concepts so we have water to drink in the coming years, considering we are in a 10-year extreme drought.

This is one of the "small steps" which contribute to a bigger solution. I hope to see another speech of this lady soon, this was brilliant!
That was awesome, Cynthia! good job.

I remember when Ted Talks used to be informative, is this what they have turned into, infomercials?
Seemed pretty informative, maybe you were not paying attention?

Good ideas, horrible designs.
Apparently, you've never actually seen the completed designs. They are absolutely beautiful!
