The Guardian is my preferred paper but this article is garbage. Comparing car deaths to early deaths from gas stoves is ridiculous.
““The main uncertainty is whether the risk of dying found with outdoor NO2 from mainly traffic can be applied to indoor NO2 from gas cooking,” said Steffen Loft, an air pollution expert at the University of Copenhagen, who was not involved in the research. “But it is a fair assumption and required for the assessment.””
Industrial and petrochemical pollution is by far the largest cause of health problems when it comes to the general population. The insurance companies are very cagey about releasing rates of deaths from cancer in specific areas and the government certainly doesn’t share that.
