I question who wrote this promotional piece. “Are you tired of the noise, emissions, and hassle of traditional outdoor power equipment?” Perhaps some people hate the noise. Other people beleive the emissions are destroying planet earth. Perhaps both noise and emissions are evil.
But “hassle?” How out of touch is that? Convenience, ease of use, speed, labor savings, range of operational use are just some of the advantages of gas-powered leaf blowers. Sounds like the gathering at Tuers Park is more preaching to the converted than a simple demonstration.
How about this? If the sponsors truly believe there should be “community dialogue,” then why not an equal representation demonstration? Dialogue, after all, requires at least ‘two’ sides. Bring the best new battery or corded equipment and go head-to-head with “traditional outdoor power equipment.”
Personally, I don’t care who wins. I have a corded electric mower. A battery-operated leaf blower. A gas-powered automobile. I am diverse. But I am becoming more thin-skinned with every over-reach of our preening city council and sustainability activists. And one more thing: is it totally incorrect of me to ask, why won’t “Sustainable Montclair” do what other activist organizations do and put the names of the organizers on its website? It’s standard operating procedure. Who are these “neighbors” who believe the future has been determined? If it’s such a powerful cause, why be shy about it?
I might actually agree with them, but I’d like to know. Transparency, folks. It’s a Thing.
