Depending on where you live, if you haven't been excessively watering your yard like Lance Armstrong, you may not need to mow your lawn come Fall. But if you've gone though a muggy, rainy Summer in the Midwest, I'm sure your lawn is in need of a trim. After your last mowing of the season, you should clean out your lawnmower of its flammable fuel, and send it into hibernation for the Winter.

I've already shown you plenty of ways to make your home eco chic indoors, but there are also some ways you can eco-fy the space outside your home. For one, you can sprout a couch which will actually produce oxygen (!), and you can also be smart about the hour you water your garden. Beyond that, you can trade in your loud, gas-guzzling lawn mower for the Neuton Battery-Powered Mower ($479).

The neighborhood Peeping Tom caught some madwoman kicking her lawn mower's ass. Yes, destroy the machine—now it'll cut your grass! Genius. 
For a lot of homeowners across the country, fall brings with it a welcome respite from a long season of lawn mowing. When I was a kid, we always mowed our lawn with a gasoline-powered push mower, while my grandparents favored a riding gasoline-powered mower for their gigantic green spread.
I've been meaning to invest in a human-powered mower for a while now, and while I could get away with a push-style one, given the tiny plot of grass in our backyard, some people may not be so keen to try a human-powered mower on their big backyards.
