What are the hidden costs to the environment when these products were made?

Tv, cars, lawn mowers, plastic bags, disposable beverage containers, hair dryers, aerosol spray cans, and pesticides. I need two hidden costs for each. Please tell me some.

Thank you.

Answer
Think about all the costs of getting rid of and transporting all this stuff when it's thrown out. Look at the impact on the environment collecting the raw materials, manufacturing and bringing all these things to market.

I want to mulch my lawn. Do I need a new lawn mower or can I just put a mulching blade on my old one?

BB

The lawn mower I already have is a plain push mower. It doesn't have a side chute. So, if I keep the bagging chute closed and install a mulching blade, will it function as a mulching mower?

Or is there a lot more to mulching than simply having a mulching blade and keeping the chute closed?

Thanks!

Answer
Your bog standard push mower is no good for mulching. You'll have to get a new one with a mulch chute.
