Leaf Blower Bans and other Noise Pollution Limits are On the Rise: https://j.mp/3em9FOY A somewhat unexpected result of the 2020 COVID19 pandemic seems to be increased interest in gas-powered leaf blower and related bans. With nowhere to go to escape the noise, more homeowners began joining local “Quiet organization" efforts and lobbying local and state governments to pass more stringent restrictions. Reducing gas powered landscaping equipment has multiple benefits, including noise reduction, pollution reduction, health improvements for workers,and environmental protection. The first US gas leaf blower bans started in the 1970s in two California towns. Today, hundreds of cities have now passed bans and limits, which can range from a complete gas blower ban, a seasonal ban, noise or time-of-day restrictions, or even a ban on all blowers. #EcoQuietLawnCare @ecoquietlawn #leafblowers #leafblowing #lawnandgardequipment #lawnandgarden #lawns #mowing #equipment #noisepollution #noise #electrification #decarbonization #carbon #landscaping #propertymanagement #yards #outdoors #greenbuilding #greenhomes #residential #commercial #fossilfuels #pollution #emissions #fossilfuels #climatechange #sustainability
