How bad are gas lawn mowers for the enviroment?

 

 

 

 

 

Did you know that the typical residential lawn mower that you walk behind has an average engine size of 3.5 hp? The EPA puts the emissions of this size lawn mower equal to driving eleven (11) cars at 55 mph for the one hour it generally takes the typical homeowner to “walk/mow” their property. Did you know the average size engine that is in commercial sized lawn mowers is 24 hp with several at 36hp! That’s equivalent to over eighty-eighty (88) cars doing 55 mph for the same amount of time it takes them to cut your grass! The EPA says gas powered lawn and garden equipment contributes to over 10% of the total pollution in the United States, with the State of Florida being the highest in all recorded categories!

Gardeners should be familiar with the different types of shade, but should also keep in mind that measuring how much shade your garden gets isn’t always easy.
