Wouldn't you know? The Swedes are on top of it...

STOCKHOLM, Sweden -- The air pollution from cutting grass for an hour with a gasoline powered lawn mower is about the same as that from a 100 mile automobile ride, according to a new study from Sweden. The report, which the authors say is the first to compare lawn mower pollution with auto mileage, recommends using catalytic converters on mowers.

Do catalytic converters still get very hot, or did they solved that problem? In cars, they used to start fires if the vehicle was idling over some dry grass.

Well, I googled and it seems they solved that by a new design in 1981 and by using unleaded gas. Figures, since I haven't heard of fires for a long time.
