A decentralized nationwide movement that has seen more than 100 local governments — including four towns in New Jersey and Washington, D.C. — enact at least partial bans on gas-powered leaf blower use in recent years. (Some bans are seasonal, allowing use at peak-leaf times of year.) In October 2021, California passed a law requiring that all small off-road engines used in the state be zero-emissions by 2024. In practice, that means only electric lawn tools will be allowed.

Generally, it's all part of the same lie that CO2 is warming the earth/creating "climate change". And who from? The collective "world bodies" that told everyone there was a pandemic and we all needed to get vaxxed. If an individual believed the latter because the banker owned corporate media declared it 24/7, then they'll probably believe the former. Would be tyrants are always claiming to save us from something in order to present solutions that give them power.

Keep in mind that "zero emissions" can't be achieved while humans and other mammals breath, as collectively we all inhale air and exhale C02.

It's a joke. When trucks drive around belching clouds of thick black smoke we don't need to worry about that because Nanny State is telling us how to gather up leaves.

If carbon emissions were anything like the threat we are endlessly told they are perhaps our fearless leaders could, you know, lead by example and not fly first class to meetings of the great and the good when they could videoconference. Of course they couldn't live as high on the hog at our expense if they did that but it might make a better impression than flying first class to an exotic location to attend a conference to discuss ways to tell the rest of us that we can't blow leaves any more.
