According to a recent survey, nearly 70 percent of Americans want to do more to help the environment but most don't know where to start. A new program called Strive for Five encourages homeowners to look for at least five easy things they can do in their own backyards. Cherie Burns of Briggs & Stratton Corporation: "Tuning up your lawn mower is one simple thing people can do to help keep the air clean. A tune-up can actually cut emissions by up to 50 percent and make a lawn mower run better and last longer. This year you can even get a free tree from Briggs & Stratton if you purchase one of our tune-up kits - so it's time to get that lawn mower tuned." Planting a tree is another easy thing to do for the environment. Trees help clean the air and provide environmental benefits for generations to come.
