I am a San Francisco resident and I support the adoption of new
regulations that will phase out the sale of highly-polluting
gas-powered leaf blowers and lawn equipment in California beginning
in 2024.
 
As a retired firefighter I can appreciate the increase in public
safety and public health from the reduction in the storage of
gasoline and other petroleum fuels from the garages and sheds of
California. I can also appreciate the reduction in burns and other
injuries from the use of gas powered appliances. 

Beyond the personal injuries and deaths, on a public health scale,
the elimination of SOREs will improve the air quality in
California. Do your best to act now, and reduce the magnitude of
changes that will have to be enacted next year, next decade, next
score of years, to prevent climate chaos.

thank you,
