Electric Garden Tools – a Great Way to Care for the Environment
Write-up by Dan Fenstemaker, Inventor of the Original INTELETOOL
Men and women want to do as considerably as they can to care for the environment, and garden enthusiasts are among the most environmentally conscious of all. Purists love to use non-motorized tools, but those who want the power and speed of power tools are turning, a lot more and much more, to electric garden tools. In this post, we will cover the standard advantages of electric garden tools. If you haven’t bought electric tools lately, you could be surprised how far they’ve come.
Electric Motor Design
Current advances in electric motor deigns, and the materials used in these motors, have led to higher motor efficiencies. Newer electric motor designs tend to run cooler, so they result in a longer life. Interestingly, with technological advances, newer electric motors have higher horse power ratings, however are significantly much more efficient than older styles of years past.
Battery Technologies
As most of us know, rechargeable batteries have come a long way in the past 20 years. Most rechargeable batteries can now be utilized several hundred occasions, and recharging occasions are faster with charges lasting substantially longer than older styles.
The environmental impact of electric motor use is far less than that of gas-powered motors, and though this does not apply to electric garden tools, making use of rechargeable batteries instead of single-use alkaline batteries in your other tools and toys makes fantastic sense, due to the fact the quantity of energy it takes to recharge a NiMH battery is far less than the power utilised to create a new 1.
Safer and Quieter
Utilizing cordless electric garden tools can also be safer than gas powered units. Gas-powered motors can be far more unpredictable with ignition, which can lead to far more accidents. And, with newer cordless electric units, you do not have to drag a power cord behind throughout the yard that could become tangled or accidentally cut as you cut.
And, of course, electric garden tools are so much quieter than the ear-shattering noise of gas-powered tools. Electric trimmers, electric blowers, and specifically electric lawn mowers are a lot of times quieter than their gas-powered equivalents.
So, if you are in the market for new power garden tools, look closely at electric technologies. In the lengthy run, you will probably save dollars and you will undoubtedly be a lot more friendly to our atmosphere.

Inteletool inventor Dan Fenstemaker hails from Ohio. A painting contractor, Fenstemaker wondered why other tool heads weren’t available for his telescopic paint manage, so he created then patented his own. At the 2009 National Hardware Show, the DIY television crew chose Inteletool to feature as one of its hot new tools on its “Cool Tools” show. Appear for Inteletool episodes Thanksgiving weekend.

Environment: The Science behind the Stories (3rd Edition)
KEY BENEFIT: The first edition of Environment: The Science behind the Stories made the biggest splash of any new entry in environmental science over the past thirty years. The newly revised Third Edition retains all the popular features of this landmark first edition–including its integrated central case study approach, and focus on current data and critical thinking–while new instructor resources make it easier than ever to give dynamic lectures.

Unbiased to me, May 27, 2009
By Simon Mall Gift Customer –
This review is from: Environment: The Science behind the Stories (3rd Edition) (Paperback)
I agree that the book is rather useful and very practical. However, POLITICS IS A PART OF THIS FIELD. like it or not. and when facts are stated that some politician did or did not do something related to the environment, all of a sudden the authors become POLITICALLY BIASED. which is wrong and that is exactly what this book is trying to make u understand. DON’T JUST TRUST THE MEDIA for scientific facts, MEDIA IS POLITICIZED as well. true facts are available elsewhere, and this textbook does a rather good job in providing the facts. I got nothing personal to “pick” with the 1st reviewer or Mr.Bush. But I do dislike the type of misinformation and the logical fallacies used in the 1st review. [no offense, there is at least one logical fallacy in your review, go figure] All I know, is that nobody is perfect and Bush was not a saint by any means. He indeed made mistakes; who’s to say he did not make mistakes. On this virtue, who is to say that maybe some of his decisions regarding environment were not mistakes? Only true source I can trust are the scientists, and hands down republican and democrat environmental scientists (and NOT environmentalists-the activists) agree on the implications of mr.Bush’s decisions. Of course Kyoto had it’s own issues, but that does not exempt mr.Bush and his decisions from judgment and the judgment is not based on the political side of his actions which was basically that I do not sign this protocol since i find other countries not singing it (fair enough) but rather his lack of attentiveness and providing ANY real, researched and acceptable alternatives and thus letting the issue limbo which amounts to INACTION which is very much open to a fair scientific criticism when u look at the global implications. After all, I think people should side with science when it opposes their politics, because politics come and go and get buried in history, however environmental/scientific facts & effects can last many many years and affect far more than the political constituency who gets offended. POLAR BEARS are officially on the brink of extinction, GLOBAL WARMING is now a scientifically proven phenomena and no matter what your political figures dictate to you, they are no stronger and more truthful than mother nature. Most reputed scientists do a good job to stay unbiased and I believe the authors have remained quite unbiased, except that negative facts against some ppl are considered bias to their groupies… u give a 1 star out of 5 to an almost excellent textbook, only because u r politically quite intolerant, now I believe that’s one major BIAS right there: TO RUIN the whole thing, for seemingly just 1 problem. the book is over 600 pages, and u repeatedly pick on page 77 and only based on that u give it 1/5 stars. that’s so much for fairness and even if they were biased as u think, it still would not do justice to give them only 1 star, after all you’re only in disagreement over 1 single page. reading through your review, I think you may truly benefit from a business ethics course my friend. after all, democrats are correct about certain things at times, just like how republicans are correct about some other things. If I sat in my economics class and thought “gosh this is just some right wing proud corporate-America/capitalist propaganda”, I would have never been able to live my life with a relaxed mind!
