Oil fires cause immense damage to property and life! I don’t know why stoves are allowed in homes at all. Worse yet, they don’t implement any age verification, so a child can just turn on the burner! It’s crazy!
People are actually trying to legally ban gas stoves in homes based on reasoning similar to this.
I thought that was because they emit pollution into the room that was actually (not theoretical) linked to substantially higher risk of the occupants of the home getting asthma?
Yes, it increases it by 0.00% and if we get rid of cooking entirely, we can lower it even further.
How did you learn that it's 0.00%?
