    I look forward to seeing less leaf blowers in general. I don’t get the obsession with getting rid of leaves. You’re damaging the local ecosystem for what? The ability to watch your grass turn brown?

      Hi, leaf pilled person here. I still have a leaf blower to get them off my driveway. IN FACT! I use a leaf blower to get them off the pavement and onto the ground where they’ll be beneficial. They’re still a useful piece of equipment.

      Grass turns brown in the fall, for you? That usually only happens in the summer here, when we get heat waves. The grass is green every other time, covered or not covered.
