Comment | Sacramento is a city of trees. Also it is a city of leaves. But all year long, you can hear the drone of leaf blowers everywhere, any hour of the day, and sometimes, night. They are polluting. I can smell the gas exhaust as I ride my bike past them. They create very dirty air, especially in the dry summer, when dust mixes with exhaust fumes. Apparently an hour of gas-powered leaf blowing puts as much pollution in the air as a car trip from here to Denver. They are loud. Their drone keeps people from opening their windows. Their drone drives away birds and other small creatures. They create a dead zone as everything moves away to avoid their obnoxious effect. Leaf blowers and other small gas-powered tools are obnoxious, unhealthful and dangerous for the environment. Many can be replaced easily with their electric-powered counterparts. For the sake of common sense, peace and quiet, and the survival of the planet, please take this small step, and regulate the use of gas-powered engines! Thanks so much. |
