Improving Air Quality Along Colorado’s Front Range:
The Mow Down Pollution Program
The Problem
Gas-powered lawn mowers and other lawn equipment emit greenhouse gases and contribute to ground-level ozone pollution in the Denver Metro/North Front Range area. By switching to an electric mower you can make a positive impact on our air quality and human health.
The Program
The Regional Air Quality Council has launched the Mow Down Pollution – exchange program as part of their efforts to mitigate ground-level ozone and enhance air quality. This initiative offers vouchers to support individuals and organizations who opt to recycle their gas-powered lawn equipment and replace it with rechargeable or corded electric-powered alternatives.
Residential Program Status:
Our 2023 program will be launching the first week of April. We will be offering multiple voucher types through Ace Hardware and Home Depot this year. Click here for more info.
