Is this a wood joke? I'm not sure you want everyone burning wood.
- fulafel 4y agoJust the korean BBQs. Wood, or other biofuel that gets you a flame.
- wolverine876 4y agoHow is that better than natural gas for climate change and air quality?
- Hello71 4y agobiofuel is carbon-neutral. it might cause some particulate pollution, but if it's minimal enough for use in a restaurant dining area, then the environmental impact is probably negligible.
- jrockway 4y agoThe occupational risk seems pretty high. I recall hearing that using a wood stove indoors to prepare 3 meals a day is equivalent to smoking two packs of cigarettes a day. People would be upset if their employer forced them to smoke two packs of cigarettes a day. For the customer that's in there for an hour or two, though, not a big deal.
- Hello71 4y agothat's true, I didn't think about that. a restaurant probably has better ventilation and better fuel than a crappy household wood stove, but even, say, half a pack per day is a lot.
- cultofmetatron 4y agobamboo grown sustainably and turned to charcoal for use wouldn't be introducing new c02 into the atmosphere. it would be carbon neutral. Its definitely better than natural gas which uses carbon that was sequestered millions of years ago
- fulafel 4y agoEven if it wasn't, the benefits of the natural gas ban would be only minimally reduced due to small share of natural gas stove usage being in Korean BBQs.
