    That’s not accurate at all. A known risk weighs on people’s mind. You have to identify a problem before doing something about it.

      It’s accurate insofar as people don’t change their buying habits when those warnings aren’t extremely prominent and graphic

      They need to just invest in renewable energy and subsidize electric stoves

        Not entirely true: some people will change with smaller warnings, even just this news. Others require graphic warnings plastered on the front to change. More warnings, more impact.

        I’ve never lived in a home or an apartment with a gas stove. These places have had gas lines, but people weren’t interested.
