Be Prepared
Featuring Dan Mabe, nationally known electric lawn care expert with American Green Zone Alliance
Learn:
- Health and safety benefits of electric vs. gas lawn care
- Communication skills with your gardener toward pollution-free lawn care
- Best practices for electric leaf blowing, mulching and chemical-free yard care
- Forthcoming financial assistance for landscapers to go electric
Air Pollution from gas mowers and blowers is real; both landscapers and the surrounding environment are affected:
- The cumulative smog-forming emissions from gas yard equipment is now annually greater than that generated by all the light-duty passenger cars in California;
- More than 10 million gas mowers and blowers exist in California
- Running a gas mower for one hour is the smog equivalent of driving an automobile four hours;
- A gas leaf blower running for one hour generates the equivalent smog of a car driving 15 hours or 1,100 miles, about the distance from Sacramento to Denver.
