The right wing is losing their mind on Twitter this morning over FDA proposed ban on new gas stoves. They literally think Uncle Sam is going to go door to door and take ppl's gas stoves. #Gas #GasStoves

Meanwhile only about 38% Americans use gas and a large number of them are low-income renters. Much of Europe uses induction stoves which are about far more energy efficient and healthier. Induction is able to deliver roughly 80% to 90% of its electromagnetic energy to the food in the pan. Compare that to gas, which converts a mere 38% of its energy

@caffeneko i have an induction stove because I am a lazy. I hate cleaning crumbs that fall between electric coils OR ones that fall next to the gas burners. However people should be allowed to choose. The study only references U.S pop. Houses with bad ventilation could be the issue as places like Japan all use gas stoves all the time and no notation of increased asthma there. Taking away gas stoves is just punishing the poor for being poor.

@kitsunegarcia apparently claims of a 'ban' is incorrect.

@kitsunegarcia but what IS on the table is an up to $840 rebate toward replacing inefficient gas stoves.

@kitsunegarcia so short answer, no one is 'taking gas stoves away from the poor.' However a lot of rental apartment complexes do not install gas stoves b/c they are not only inefficient they are more risky.
