Thread Name: BS: Global cool your lawn
Subject: RE: BS: Global cool your lawn
I kinda like the idea of making the riding mowers illegal or at least one having to get a special handicap permit to own them...
Think about this... The amount of gasoline (oil) that is required to run these things over the billions of acres of useless grass has to represent one heck of alot of gasoline... Also, just gassing them up exposes gas to the air... Oh sure, there are these new gas spill proff gas cans but they are so pooply designed that you end up spilling more with them than the old fashioned ones...
But I reckon this is one of those things we will get around to once we have internalized that we **are** the source of global warming...
