I have been an environmental activist at various times, and I love my gas stove; I have no interest in replacing it. Cooking with gas falls so far down the list of climate-change problems we have to deal with that I can't bother to care about it. Campaigning against gas stoves seems wholly counterproductive: it drives home the message that progress on climate change involves a reduced quality of life, without offering any significant progress toward decarbonization.

It's not just global environmental that's effected, at least in america *LOTS* of homes have really crappy ventilation, and even when they have proper ventilation way to many people don't actually use it (either cause they're noisy or the person's just forgetful), so you end up breathing it in in a lot higher concentration than people expect cause the tests around them being safe are all done with proper ventilation.
