I watched a documentary recently. I don't remember the name of it but it was a British couple with a large farm. The soil was in terrible shape. They let it go back to nature and got some pushback for ruining the land. I didn't finish watching but It seems like the idea in Britain for the majority is that nature sucks.
This was what I was watching

I get a lot of comments about needing to cut my lawn. I don't have a lawn, I have a meadow.
I have seen more bees this year in the garden of my new house than in the previous decade combined living around monocrop plastic and paved wasteland.
My neighbors hate my backyard. They love all the fireflies I have in my backyard. They just don't like the lack of grass and the large amount of plants.
