Helping the Environment! The typical American homeowner creates about 20-22 tons of CO2 each year. This output can be reduced by using more efficient transportation, improving efficiencies in the home, and the workplace. Equally, if not more interesting, there are systems that remove and consume existing CO2 from the atmosphere. One of the largest systems includes your lawn. In theory, by keeping a happy, healthy lawn, garden and forest areas, you could actually become a consumer of CO2 instead of a producer.
