Lawn Rails For Trams
|
Lawn maintenance often uses synthetic (inorganic chemicals) pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, which can harm the environment. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that nearly 70 million pounds of active pesticide ingredients are used on suburban lawns each year.
For example, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Kuwait, and Belize have placed restrictions on the use of the herbicide 2,4-D.
The use of pesticides and fertilizers, requiring fossil fuels for manufacturing, distribution, and application; have been shown to contribute to global warming. Whereas sustainable organic techniques have been shown to help reduce global warming.
