I'm adding to the list of links lawnstogardens.com, which I found through Kunstler. It's a peak-oil website, but addresses many other topics as well.
Ted Steinberg's book American Green: The Obsessive Quest for the Perfect Lawn (Norton, 2006) is out in paperback next month. I've been meaning to get a copy but kept forgetting about it. The best (i.e., most eco-friendly) way to keep a lawn trim is to let animals (e.g., goats, deer) eat the grass. Close behind are regular mowings with a push-mower. The Brill Luxus is a nice example.

I'll be discussing lawns more soon.
