Gas used in cooking is a minuscule fraction of the all the ways we use methane, let alone other fossil fuels. The biggest problem with gas stoves as far as climate change is concerned isn't the gas they burn directly, it's that once you have the hookup, it's tempting to use it for heat as well, which burns an order of magnitude at least more gas. (Also, simply having a gas distribution network is an opportunity to leak methane. But we could let people use propane for cooking since propane is not itself a greenhouse gas.)
