California’s Legislature is about to approve a ban on off-road engines, which will put an end to the sale of gas-powered lawn equipment and generators.

The Small Off-Road Engine (SORE) ban (on engines under 25 horsepower) would take place soon, and consumers will find few affordable and adequate options by its start date. In targeting generators, the Legislature will make it exceedingly difficult for an increasing number of Californians to operate their households as wildfires result in additional electrical blackouts. But lawmakers don’t care about the problems ordinary Californians face when there’s a climate crisis going on.
On the plus side, maybe the rest of the country can get a small engine without all the CARB crap on it. That would be nice.
Any entrepreneurs here might want to set up a black market sales site down around the CA, AZ, border. You could make a mint.
