Gas-powered lawn and garden machines such as leaf blowers and lawn mowers may be small but they produce a shocking amount of pollution — pound for pound even more than the cars and trucks we drive.

From ozone-forming emissions to particulate matter, the pollution produced by this equipment causes harmful health effects such as asthma, lung damage, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Cleaner, quieter electric tools are readily available so we no longer have to tolerate so much harmful pollution — and noise — when cutting grass and maintaining our gardens and landscapes.

Send a message to the governor showing your support for phasing out the dirtiest gas-powered lawn and garden equipment so we can make our air safer to breathe.
