Subject | please ban gas-powered landscaping equipment |
Comment | I am a California 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. These types of small engines produce a lot of greenhouse gasses. Better alternatives are available, and developments in both this field and others show that recommendations and gradual phase-outs are not effective. We need to ban the sale of this equipment immediately; it's too late to dilly-dally about climate change. Financial subsidies provided by the state will help any small businesses that are hurt by rule changes. There are no more excuses. |
