Oh and if literal grass-touching IS viable, I also advocate for touching invasive grass. Many parks in the US have invasive plant removal volunteer work days. You get some air and some exercise and you can talk to other volunteers if you want or you can just march off into the trees on your own and start wreaking havoc with various hand tools. If you want to do something that is both useful AND destructive, I have found nothing better
funnily enough i did this for the first time today & yeah, i highly recommend, it rules hard
you just show up & they give you a bunch of pre-sharpened loppers & are like “here’s what an invasive blackberry bush looks like, go kick its ass”
and then you just get to hack and maim and wreck for FREE for as many hours as you so desire??? good as HELL
Removal of invasive species is one of the best things you can do for the environment. The task can feel overwhelming, you impact may feel small. But each plant you remove stops thousands and thousands of additional invasive seeds from wreaking havoc on our native wildlife.
I do this regularly and can confirm its the best. Go be in nature, go godzilla on some honeysuckle and open up huge swathes of forest to native species that support failing bird and bug populations!
