"For millions of homeowners, mowing the law just got a whole lot greener now that lawncare giants John Deere and EGO are working together, Electrek reported.
EGO is a leading supplier of battery-powered lawn equipment that runs on interchangeable 56-volt lithium-ion batteries, which the company says are equal to or greater than the power of gas-powered motors.
Under the agreement, EGO’s over 70 battery-powered lawn care products will be available at John Deere dealers in Canada and the U.S. this fall, according to Electrek. The publication further reported that the companies are in talks to develop future equipment together.
Lawn care equipment is a major contributor to the pollution blanket overheating our planet. The Portland Press Herald reported that data from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) showed that gasoline-powered equipment like lawnmowers and leaf blowers produce around 242 million tons of pollutants annually, an amount equal to that of cars and houses."
"What’s more, the EPA estimated that upward of 17 million gallons of gasoline is spilled each year while refueling lawn equipment, polluting and degrading soil, and ending up in our water"
