Zurich voters decide to ban petrol leaf blowers and vacuums, allowing only electric models from October to December.
Residents of Zurich are voting on a ban on petrol-powered leaf blowers and vacuums, allowing only electric models and restricting their use to October through December, with exceptions in special cases.
The measure aims to reduce noise, fine dust, and bacteria pollution, citing public health and environmental concerns.
Opponents argue existing noise regulations are sufficient and call the ban an unnecessary overreach, criticizing it as excessive regulation.
The referendum reflects broader urban concerns about environmental quality and community well-being.
