Again, sure you can say taking 10 acres of land or something like the Arbutus Corridor and creating a meadow will support an ecosystem of birds and other insects. But just stop it with this BS about reducing the carbon footprint of lawn mowers cutting the grass in a boulevard when it's just a drop in the bucket of how much gas they use cutting lawns in the city.
Here's the Park Board documents on the project:

I support the larger projects in the parks/golf courses and I don't really care either way about the boulevard.
