Clean Air Lawn Care
Clean, Quiet & Organic
We now offer an all-natural, organic treatment & fertilization program to ensure your yard is beautiful and safe for your children, pets, & waterways
We use clean, electric equipment powered by renewable energy
Electric mowers emit 3,300 times less hydrocarbons, 5,000 times less CO, one-fifth as much NOx as gas lawn mowers.
Emissions are reduced to zero when run on renewable energy
Electric equipment is 50 – 70% quieter than gas-powered lawn equipment
Our electric equipment is charged using solar panels mounted on our trucks
We run our larger mowers on locally produced biofuels
All grass clippings and organic matter are recycled, either on site or at a local recycling center
We mow at a height that maximizes water conservation and nutrient uptake
Conventional Lawn Services
Dirty, Loud & Use Harmful Chemicals
Small engines contribute 5-10% of the nation’s air pollution
According to the EPA, in 1 hour, 1 gas lawn mower:
Pollutes the same as 40 late model cars
Emits the same amount of hydrocarbons (precursors to ground-level ozone) as a SUV driven 23,600 miles
Contribute 93 times more smog-forming emissions than 2006 cars
The average gas lawn mower runs at 100 decibels – anything over 90 decibels causes hearing damage
Gas lawn mowers consume 580 million gallons of gasoline annually
A 1000 square foot lawn generates 300 pounds of clippings annually, rapidly filling up landfills
Many lawn services mow at a height that burns the grass, wastes water, and promotes weed growth
Synthetic fertilizers and pesticides leach into waterways, create yards unfit for children & pets, and deplete the soil’s organic matter
