I support the thought, but had this been fully thought out. Electric cars only recently became more energy efficient than gas powered; do we know the same about mowers? And that ignores the energy used in mining to create the necessary batteries, after which the analysis is still conflicting as to what is "better". And is it a.slam dunk that longer grass is better for us all? Seems like longer grass probably retains more heat, which is in part why is is mowed here in FL as often as possible. Might be a good thing in VT? Just asking. I am not a climate change denier, but tend to wonder about green initiatives that seem obvious but are not forthright about obvious and not so obvious offsets.

Keep up the good work regardless; I look forward to visiting again when VT and Canada fully reopen. But also understand that it is frustrating that it has not happened; out kids went back to school 100% last September and most everyone here is now vaccinated.
