GROUP THINK for EGGHEADS is my description of publications like The Lancet and many other “scientific journals” that promote propaganda inspired by politics.
It is interesting that natural gas gets lumped in with coal and other fuels under the misleading label of "fossil fuels". In our home, we use a natural gas cooktop whose four burners can put out as much as 40,000 Btu/hr. We have had used this stove on a daily basis for almost 20 years with no health issues. The cooking process takes place over an open flame within our kitchen, and the products of combustion (carbon dioxide and water vapour) have no special venting.
I imagine our health might be worse had we been using a peat or wood fuelled stove for cooking as our ancestors did, or even worse, burning dung as is still being done in some of the developing world.
