Letters to the Editor: A gas stove ban wouldn't be such a bad idea (via latimesopinion )
. We cannot pretend their effect on our health and the climate is not dangerous. It is!
We are too far along in destroying our planet for only “limits and standards” on gas appliances. They need to be eliminated, and if that means no more gas stoves, I’m all for it.The discussion of gas ranges here and elsewhere fails to note that electricity is not very “green” either. The same math holds for electrical cars. While electricity in our homes and cars does not pollute locally, generating it is a major component of atmospheric pollution.Perhaps the most dangerous effect of gas stoves is methane emissions.
We had excellent experiences with electric stoves in the past and intend to replace our gas stove with an electric one as soon as possible.I would wholeheartedly support a U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission ban on gas stoves and any legislation or regulations required to stop methane emissions from gas appliances.
