Neat Lawns, Empty Gardens: Belarusian Law Highlights Unintended Ecological Consequences

In a quiet Belarusian village, Ales, a local resident, found himself facing an unexpected consequence of a new law requiring short grass: the disappearance of bumblebees and a change in mouse behavior. "The lawn is neat, but the garden is lifeless," Ales shared, expressing his concern. The video highlights the subtle and often overlooked impact of strict landscaping rules on local ecosystems. Experts suggest that a more balanced approach to lawn care might be needed to protect biodiversity. The incident serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of urban planning and environmental conservation.
