Two-thirds of professional users have reported suffering from some kind of illness or injury from using petrol-powered tools, including:
.
👎 23% reported a loss of grip strength
👎 22% suffered sensation loss in their fingers
.
Could that be why 82% said they would consider a battery-powered alternative for their next purchase?

To run a leaf blower for ONE hour uses 2.16 litres of fuel but, to compare, the average consumer vehicle uses 3.6 litres of fuel!
.
Read that again…
.
A leaf blower uses 2.16 litres of fuel EVERY HOUR but the average consumer vehicle uses just 3.6 litres of fuel.
.
While these levels of fuel consumption might not seem significant, when a tool designed to move leaves needs more than HALF the fuel required of a vehicle constructed to transport four people, it is a concern.

Why is the use of petrol-powered gardening equipment still so high?
.
We know you care about the environment – 73% of those surveyed for The Report have said they are taking steps towards reducing their personal environmental impact – so it doesn't make sense to continue using tools that have been proven to have a detrimental impact on our environment.

Any idea how much fuel the average professional gardener uses in a year?
.
It's equivalent to driving just under 2,000 miles in an average car 🚗
.
To put that into perspective, it's the same as 16 cars travelling from London to Birmingham, or 4 cars completing the 480-mile trip from Paris to Marseille!
.
That's a lot of fuel, right?

Join our revolution and let's get rid of petrol-powered tools once and for all.

In the UK, 89% of council tools are petrol-powered. That's more than 22,000 tools that are used to maintain green spaces.

The irony here is that these tools actually produce worryingly high levels of emissions which ultimately damage the environments they're designed to maintain.

Did you know air pollution is costing residents of European cities billions, according to recent studies conducted for the European Public Health Alliance?
.
Across 30 different European countries, over €166 billion is being spent as they pledge to tackle the health risks related to air pollution - including premature deaths, medical treatment and sick days!
.
As it stands, Bucharest, Romania, is top of the list by spending €6.3 billion annually with five Italian cities, including Milan, Padua, Venice, Brescia, and Turin, also making the top ten due to high levels of pollution and high spending costs.
.
At @EGOPowerPlusEU, we already know how damaging air pollution is for our health and planet, but by using battery power we're able to produce less noise, vibration and zero fumes - with no sacrifice on power or performance of your tool.

Pollution, noise pollution and sustainability are all clearly huge issues in today’s society so there’s a baffling irony in the fact that the majority of the tools created to beautify our gardens are actually contributing to the destruction of our environment.

As a community, we can all do our bit to cut air pollution.
.
According to a recent study, published by The Lancet Planetary Health, Italian cities rank highly in the number of premature deaths attributed to the effects of air pollution. The report examined two main pollutants - fine particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide.
.
To demonstrate our commitment to leaving petrol behind and highlighting the dangers of using petrol-powered tools, we recently published The Report that showed that 60% of people think pollution could be reduced if everybody switched to electric garden power tools.

.
In 2011, a Ford V8 Pickup truck went head-to-head with a standard 4 Stroke Leaf Blower. The test found that the leaf blower’s tiny engine produced 6.8 times more nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide than the V8 truck’s engine – and 13.5 times more carbon dioxide!

Did you know that moving away from petrol power is one of the most effective ways we can reduce the volume of toxic emissions our daily activities produce?
.
Plans to introduce Clean Air - or Low Emission - Zones throughout Europe are a fantastic way of initiating change for the benefit of our planet – and the health of the public – but there’s still so much petrol power surrounding us.
.
Petrol-powered gardening tools are often overlooked by these initiatives, despite some producing more emissions than the average car, so it’s important to remove petrol-powered tools from our parks, schools, and other valued outdoor spaces.
