- joshka 4y agoI was curious about the relationship between number of people on the planet vs acres of forest. Turns out there's enough forest for about 1.24 acres per person. That was close enough to 1 to be interesting.

- camgunz 4y agoWood burning heaters are really common in tiny house builds, but yeah I'm skeptical that they're all sealed and vented properly, and that doesn't help at all with the outdoor air pollution. Generally bad idea, I agree.

The stove in the marketing photos is very small and has a door. Without disputing smoke not being great for you, I think it's safe to say this is not a context anyone should be losing sleep over.
