You’ve posted some variation of “we need to decarbonize our economy” something like four times in this thread, which is a great example of how slogans are thought terminators. This seems an awful lot like cutting out your daily coffee when you’re millions in debt. I don’t cook with gas and have no particular attachment to it, but at least at a glance this looks performative - and you’re swallowing it hook, line, and sinker. The amount of carbon produced by cooking with gas is surely negligible in the grand scheme of things. What are the carbon costs in decommissioning and replacing thousands of working appliances? Could the money spent on this more effectively decarbonize other aspects of our economy? Could the political capital spent on this more effectively decarbonize other aspects of our economy?
