Side note: I’ve actually never read a news article on Facebook. I had to work on an early graph based website integration with their apis in the early 00s and decided never to trust it from that, and that was before news feeds and all the other bullshit really began.
Fair enough about Facebook, I think you did the right thing there! But I have already stumbled onto your link as a source for “gas stoves bad”, and it’s just not true.
This is part of the short abstract (from your link):
If kitchens are not well ventilated, benzene, nitrogen dioxide, and other VOCs may reach levels known to harm health.
I’d emphasize the If kitchens are not well ventilated so for me it’s as obvious as saying electric stoves are dangerous if the wiring isn’t well done. Or, gas stoves are not dangerous, like bicycles aren’t etc.
None of the apartments I’ve ever lived in have had actual extraction fan vents that went outside. They all sucked air in through a grease filter and blew them out in basically your face. 3 out of the 4 had gas ranges.
Grilling: FIRE!
Grilling is the superior method
Gas stove top: half civilized half FIRE!
+cancer and asthma!
Less cancer and asthma than wood/charcoal though. But at some point you need to accept risk and enjoy life.
I’d rather grill outdoors 3-4 times a year than have who knows what coming out with that gas, in an appliance in my house almost every day.
Only if you get your information from Facebook!
You mean the measurable increase of NO2 and benzene the NIH recorded in homes with gas stoves?

Wow. Where do you live?!
