| Re: Petrol Lawn Mowers.
I had never thought about carbon footprints from mowing the lawn before I read this. We have a large, very rough area of lawn that we mow with a (well maintained) industrial size petrol mower. Large areas are inaccessable and are left wild to attract wildlife rather than being strimmed and the blackbirds and thrushes love the mown areas. We planted trees when we moved here 18 years ago which now provide valuable habitat for wildlife. |
