Lawn Mowers

Here’s another thing you probably don’t know, gas powered lawn movers are horrible for the environment. A riding lawn mower emits as much CO2 into the atmosphere as an average car does traveling 100 miles. Americans use 800 million gallons of gas each year on gasoline powered lawn equipment. Trading in your gas powered lawn mover for an electric one will not only save you money, but you’ll be doing the environment a great service. The average electric mower costs $5 a year in electricity to operate. Most come in cordless models as well making them easier to use.

THE FACTS

A riding lawn mower emits as much CO2 in the atmosphere as an average car does traveling 100 miles.
