I play for fun, often by myself. I’ve never encountered a more challenging sport before, and it gives me a lot of time to be alone with my thoughts, while also getting some sunshine and exercise. It’s peaceful and cool. Okay, it’s not all that peaceful if you’re hitting a terrible game, but it can be, and it is so rewarding when you finally start playing well. It takes so much time and dedication to be a good golf player. It also takes a lot of honesty, especially with yourself.
but have you ever asked yourself if your sport, your past time, a recreation, deserves hundreds of millions of water?
“In 2019, the county reported 659 million total gallons used between its six courses. That figured jumped to 827.7 million in 2020, then sank back down again to 663 million gallons in 2021. That’s enough water to support about 10,750 Utahns.”
edit: Love the downvoter who can’t speak up in response…
Nope. I live where it rains 9-12 months out of the year. There is no shortage of water here.
And the historic racism and classism doesn’t bother you either, obviously.
