This is the future!

Once the atmospheric CO2 levels rise high enough, this will be sold with an included CO2 scrubber. Then you can mow your lawn without getting symptoms of CO2 poisoning. Like in the good old times in the 2020s!

Wouldn't the CO2 levels have to increase massively for that to be an issue? I feel like this is hyperbolic.

that's why we engineered the lawn mower to run on only the dirtiest fuel available, and a sufficiently inefficient engine that it consumed 50 liters to mow the average lawn!

Are you talking about two stroke petrol engines or something else?
