SAN JOSE, CA - JANUARY 30: Workers with Better Than Real Artficial Lawns install an artificial lawn in front of an apartment building on January 30, 2014 in San Jose, California. Artificial lawns have emerged as a water saving alternative for Californians who have been asked to voluntarily reduce water by twenty percent as California is experiencing its driest year on record. Some counties have imposed mandatory reductions in water use and have banned watering of lawns. California Gov. Jerry Brown officially declared a drought emergency earlier in the month to speed up assistance to local governments, streamline water transfers and potentially ease environmental protection requirements for dam releases.
