It's probably because green fields take a ton of water to maintain in many climates. In the American west, they're awful for water usage. Green lawns and golf courses should straight up be banned for the public good.

I'd like to try a round of golf in a western desert. We're just hitting a ball around; it doesn't have to look like Scotland.
