Electric Mowers

54 million Americans mow their lawn each week. A typical gas mower emits 65 pounds of CO2 per year. It's estimated that each year homeowners spill 17 million gallons of gasoline when refueling. By comparison this is 6 million more gallons than were spilled by the Exxon Valdez in Alaska.
There is a new way. The Neuton Mower - an electric/battery powered mower.

Capable of mowing about 1/3 of an acre with a single charge
