This sounds like a great idea. Kill weeds with steam. He changes $80 an hour:
Steam weeding is the process of using steam and hot water to heat the water within plant cells, causing them to burst and effectively cooking the plant from the inside. The method kills the plant, but also breaks down seeds in the soil, preventing future weed growth.

(And cool, he uses a Japanese Kei truck, so relatively low carbon)
