Point taken wrt greenhouse, but I don't think we're gonna be that desperate even considering how bad the situation already is, and is likely to get. Gas cooking is a really tiny fraction of residential greenhouse emissions. Natural gas accounts for most of of the greenhouse emissions from commercial and residential[0] sources, but commercial & residential represent less than 15% of the total domestic US contribution. If you consider how often somebody is using the gas range vs their water heater or household heating, this is a really really small number. Globally, the numbers look similar[1]. I'm not sure about how much gas is leaking from the grid, or what the cost of the hazards associated with the gas supply is, however the second source cites fugitive emissions as %3.9 and pipeline transport as %0.3. Its a little unclear to me exactly what the proportion of cooking is, but it is undoubtedly very small. Greenhouse minimalist is certainly a valid position to stake out, but personally I see the buy in easier to achieve in the other, larger, more centralized sources. There is also the possibility of delivering non-fossil fuel gas, while a bit jokey, there are diverse sources and the technology is mature[2] However you or I feel about energy diversity should probably be disregarded currently as its not an issue at this time, but I feel confident that we likely can keep cooking with gas if we handle the other stuff and even if we don't. Also, consider the unneeded political difficulty introduced while garnering consumer action instead of tackling the largest and most easily managed contributors.
