[Summit] Fwd: yard service without leaf blowers

[libertyliterary at cox.net]

Believe it or not, I found this quite exciting.
Actually, as the director of the organization
Toxics Information Project (TIP), I was 
especially pleased to see the information
about pollution from the gas-powered
blowers.  I assume that, like golf carts,
they are not subject to any clean air
regulation .  (The latter make me sick
when they go by, never mind riding in
them).

Thank you so much, Brian, for sharing
this.  I will be excerpting from the article
in my upcoming TIP Fall newsletter!

By the way, I think the ultimate solution
will be lots of electric-powered gadgets
powered by solar photovoltaic and 
advanced, more environmentally
friendly batteries.

Blessings,

Liberty G

I was emailing with a friend about leaf blowers, (as exciting as that
sounds), and he sent me these two links.
