This has already been done in parts of California under the Green-Deal climate-change banner for stoves and to ban the sale/installation of gas water heaters and furnaces by 2030.

Dems know this will never get through as a federal law, so backdooring it as a Consumer Safety Protection BS ban.

I've already banned natural gas appliances at my house, but just my house, nobody else's.
Just another example of government overreach.
I'm not sure how we've survived as a species without big government keeping us safe. Now if they could just keep us safe from them.

Good thing electricity is unlimited.

Are the same effects seen with propane stoves...typically in more rural, less densely populated areas, or just natural gas in more densely populated suburban and urban areas?

The "issue" is the small amount of NO2 generated when hydrocarbons combust in atmosphere, where the nitrogen is contributed. You get it really any time you start a fire. There's various studies out that say this can contribute to asthma.

Speaking from an industrial chemical background, it sounds like fear mongering and regulations to generate money for a few at the expense of many. I saw the stoves being referred to as "racist" today, as there are numbers out that say the stoves are more popular with poor minorities.

Racist stoves injuring minority children, sound the big media trumpets.

I insist on only having a gas stove, and I only cook in cast iron.

They can try to pry it from my well fed cold fat hands.

I figured this would have a heavy impact on restaurants, don't most cook on gas?

Their next BS move will be, to ban garden hoses, and being out past dark.

Seems like I read where one of the European countries, maybe Australia, has recently announced this same hair brained idea.

Commercial gas grills operate under a huge vent hood and fan that draws everything out.

Some home range vents are ducted outdoors but many are not.

Many have said the left is using climate change and racism to mask their communist ideology and that they'll use those to ban anything they don't want you to have. Lefties said "no that's crazy, just conspiracy theories". Fast forward..... They are going to ban cars, they are going to ban stoves, they are going to destroy everything they can under the guise of saving the planet and your health. They locked people out of the economy for your health. They'll lock people in their homes for the planet. Just like they lied about CRT not being in schools.... Just like they lied about keeping your doctor...... It's literally everything.

It is not my government's job, at any level, to tell me what I can and cannot buy nor make me buy something I don't want (EV, Obamacare etc)

They will keep pushing until someone pushes back, HARD

 

[BugI02]

Maybe refurbish used units and go into the black market 'antique' stove business?

I know some folks who made bank on the old high flow toilets

 

[DragonGunner]

They already banned wood stoves in some states. So ya they going to do it. Democrat stupidity and hatred of America.

 

[Sigblitz]

My stove is vented outside so I'm only giving the birds asthma.

Didn’t we just recently achieve energy independence because of natural gas?

And where does this electricity come from?

I don’t understand why we can’t agree to build like a 1000 Nuclear power plants.

Have SpaceX agree to shoot the crap into the Sun.

Powers all the Teslas, and everything else.

All waste is handled.

Cheap energy.

Can’t have that…

Cheap energy is freedom…
