And they want me to give up driving and my gas stove...
"Rules for thee, not for me"
Getting rid of the gas stove is for your own respiratory health.
Same for the combustion car. But, muh freedumbs...
Not my setup, no pilot and I have a hood that vents outside when its in use...
Normal residential oven vent hoods do not remotely get all the cooking exhaust. I’m not sure they get any meaningful quantity of cooking exhaust.
Try an experiment that I’ve done at least once in several different houses over the years: turn on your hood vent fan, then leave your food on the stove and accidentally burn the everloving shit out of it.
Is your house full of smoke and fire alarms going off? Then your range hood is not protecting you from combustion products coming off the range
Ok I get it, Home Depot hoods are terrible. I don't have one of those, I have something like this:
No fire alarms go off when I sear/blacken anything went its at medium pull. I will say its a pain in the ass to clean, I try to use the outside BBQ as much as possible.
EDIT:
And this should be standard/code for all houses imo
I will say, I had a no pilot gas stove with a ventilation hood and I noticed I big improvement switching to induction when my apartment participated in this pilot program for it. But I also have asthma so I'm much more sensitive to stuff like that, so your mileage may vary.
Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and savior, the induction hob?
I have one for my wok to get the super high temps.
Good, then fuck 'em
Yes. We need to do those things as well, and this travesty doesn't remove the need for all of us to decarbonise
You’ve been driving your gas stove?
Using the stove to heat up the water instead of coal is a natural evolution of the steam engine...
Range rover? Nah mate, I drive a range hood 😎
It gets them all hot & bothered.
Of all the people to drive a gas stove I would have thought it'd be you, homes.
