The PM2.5 not only gets in your lungs, it enters your bloodstream and gets everywhere including your brain. Peter Attia MD says there is no doubt it will shorten lifespan and healthspan.
>your wish isn't going to come to pass any time soon
It is coming to pass: for example, in the Bay Area, woodstoves and fireplaces have been banned in new construction since 2005.

- bigstrat2003 3y agoDude, the Bay area is quite possibly the most atypical culture you could ask for compared to the rest of the nation. That isn't exactly a compelling argument.
- hollerith 3y agoBack when vaping was still legal, a vaper surfaced on this site asserting that there was no way vaping would ever be banned, obviously, at least outdoors, e.g., while waiting for a bus, and guess what? At least where I live (Bay Area) vaping is illegal while standing outside waiting for a bus. So don't assume that your appreciation of woodsmoke is widespread enough prevent its becoming illegal some day.
- bigstrat2003 3y agoI didn't assume it. But for right now, enough people enjoy wood fires that you're not going to see it banned everywhere in the country any time soon. Obviously, it could happen some day. But I'm only making predictions about the near future (say the next 5-10 years), not for all eternity.
