A new report on the impacts of gas-powered lawn and garden equipment in Massachusetts estimated the devices generated more than 600,000 tons of carbon dioxide in 2020 — an amount equivalent to the pollution from about 135,000 standard cars.

I got rid of all gas power equipment a while ago and have no regrets but I have a small yard and do everything with hand tools (snow, raking, etc) except mowing and string trimming. I use corded, not battery, and while a cord is mildly annoying I never have to charge batteries and the mower and trimmer were both very affordable because of this.
