Your logic makes no sense. Make laws requiring landlords to properly vent gas stoves, not ban them altogether.

  Nah.. 90% of places would be grand-fathered in. A landlord won't spend money on fixing the heat, they're not putting in duct work and a vent. Practically speaking how would a building do this, without costing thousands. Who do you think the land-lord will pass that cost to? I grew up in Canada with electric stoves (in multiple rentals). Never once did I have an issue cooking.

    > I grew up in Canada with electric stoves (in multiple rentals). Never once did I have an issue cooking. This is very much the same as Mac vs. PC debate. It's 100% preference. The average Mac user will go insane if made to switch to windows, and vice versa. The reasons why are almost entirely personal preference, and a quite strong preference at that.

  > Your logic makes no sense. Make laws requiring landlords to properly vent gas stoves, not ban them altogether. Read the article. Health concerns are an issue, buy they are not the reason why New York is banning natural gas in new constructions.

    The parent is talking about having no vent hood.
