Perhaps more understandable if you live on an estate, but everyone around here has a lawn the size of a postage stamp. The amount of noise gets ridiculous. Those people have nothing else to do I suppose. My landscapers arrive and descend on our property like a team. Cut, edge, trim, boom boom boom - done and gone. That’s the way I like it. <p><p></p></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between me and my retired neighbor, we have a leaf blower running more often than not for the better part of September, October and November. Had mine going three hours yesterday... his was running today... mine will be going again tomorrow or the next day. And then there are the rest of the neighbors running theirs.

achez Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 in the overall scheme of some sort of lessening affect on the carbon emissions from these machines… is probably negligible. Just more fodder for the enviro wackos. Maybe China and India can help out.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Communities are made up by voters, don’t try to pass the buck. Communities have a board. I don’t have a vote on any board. Keep to be a dentist and you’d be better off than trying to figure out anything else in life. Knows zero and it shows. A person can be thought to be an idiot, opens the mouth and all doubt is removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
