You have a yard. Many people do not. People live in parts of the US that are deserts made of shitty buildings and huge roads.
Those places are called "cities." And the people in question also have a yard, they're renting a house in the country.
And I don't have a yard actually, I just live somewhere that there's living creatures outside aka not a city.
Yeah no
Not having any greenery is not the defining characteristic of a city, it is a choice
Look at this picture, it is the capital of Switzerland, the centre of it no less:
And is that where these people live? That can't eat grass because everything is made of concrete?
Nah, those people live in the US, where cities look like this, thanks to car-centric lifes. If you tried to eat that grass you'd probably die, it's so polluted by engine oil, exhaust and tyre wear
So cities then.
