Greening Your Lawn for Spring Giveaway Winner

Danny Lipford — Mon, 04 May 2009 14:55:41 +0000

Go to our contest page for our current giveaway.

The winner of our Greening Your Lawn for Spring Giveaway was Cathy Spears of New Philadelphia, Ohio. For being chosen as the winning entry, Cathy will receive a Black & Decker Cordless Lawn Mower.

As surprising as it may seem, gas powered lawn mowers produce much more pollution per gallon than the average automobile. According to the EPA, running a gas lawn mower for an hour can generate as much air pollution as driving a car almost 200 miles!

The Black & Decker CMM1200 Cordless Lawn Mower is perfect for reducing your carbon footprint. It’s powered by a 24-volt, rechargeable battery that starts at the flip of a switch and has a 19” blade cut can cut up to 1/3 of an acre on a single charge. The Energy Star rated charger uses 35% less energy than common chargers. Not only will the neighbors be green with envy when they see your new cordless mower, but you’ll never have to worry about changing the oil or adding gas again.
