According to the E.P.A. in one hour a gas lawn mower:
- pollutes the same amount as 40 late model cars
- emits the same amount of hydrocarbons as a SUV driven 23,000 miles
- contributes 93 times more smog-forming emissions than 2006 model cars
Gas mowers run at 100 decibels; anything over 90 can cause hearing damage.
Gas mowers consume 580 million gallons of gasoline per year.
A 1,000 sq.ft. lawn generates 300 pounds of clippings annually, rapidly filling up landfills if not composted or recycled.
