Tighter regulations or a ban on gas stoves coming?

Thanks for the link! It describes all of the risk factors I am familiar with, and inludes a link to this article the original post was referring to.

Turns out the medical school where I met my husband and we treated kids with asthma is mentioned!

For what it’s worth, my daughter has asthma, much better than when she was a child, I have “reactive airways”, essentially the same thing, for which I use inhalers twice a day. I have an aunt who " keeled over dead" from asthma, shortly after I spoke to her on the phone, and told my cousin to get her to the emergency room. I have other relatives with asthma as well. I had a neighbor who “keeled over dead”, IIRC, after she came outside after someone mowed their grass. I’ve treated more kids than I care to remember with asthma. I worked at a camp for kids with asthma. Or maybe that was diabetes. Or maybe both. It was long ago, but both are chroinic and require psychosocial support in childhood.

We have made so much progress.

I can understand working to eliminate things that increase risk, especially in the homes of those at risk. I’m going to have to read that article a few more times before I stop cooking on my stove. If it said “you will be cured, no longer have to use an inhaler, nor worry about exposure to other risks, nor worry about your decendants”, I’d do it. Probably.

Okay, I’m done. This was supposed to be about cooking without gas.

I do have a mega exhaust to go with my mega cpu gas range. :grin:

I did find induction fascinating.
