Extreme ironing competition. It is what it sounds like. Some great ones in there.

way to go, Palo Alto
Palo Alto has a gas-powered leaf blower ban. Okay, seems a little extreme, but you know, you want to do well for the environment, right?
Well twice in the past couple months, I’ve seen this: an electric leaf blower plugged into a gas powered generator.
For those of you who aren’t engineers or this isn’t obvious to: an electric leaf blower plugged into a gas powered generator is necessarily less efficient than a gas powered leaf blow. It’s quieter, though, while it’s killing the environment more so at least we got that!
