GAS-POWERED LEAF BLOWERS ARE HAZARDOUS!


EXTREME NOISE – their high-decibel, low-frequency noise disrupts communities and contributes to hearing loss and hypertension.

HEALTH RISKS – their toxic emissions and fine particulates increase risks of cancer, lung disease, heart disease, and dementia.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS – their toxic waste and smog-forming emissions harm ecosystems and contribute to the climate crisis.

who defends noisy loud leafblowers? do the people replying aggressively realize some people work from home and live in neighborhoods where they go constantly from house to house sometimes there's a guy just wandering in circles blowing particles of sand into a storm drain or blow drying puddles? no joke? This does not give you the right to deny someone else of a problem because maybe it doesn't affect you.. there are also better models such as four stroke which are still gas and powerful and use motors like your lawn mower with just as much power...there's no need for outdated 2stroke screaming leafblowers...if you want to clean your yard great..why should it torture your neighbor? I don't understand the aggressive responses,,,if something bothered you i'm sure you complain about it

No need for anyone to be working from home anymore either. The “thing” from 2019 is over.
Now all you lazy bastards get up off your ass and go back to work. Like adults. So damn lazy.
