Indoor air pollution from New Zealand’s 523,000 wood burners was estimated to account for 446 hospital admissions for heart and lung problems, and 101 early deaths annually, in a country with a population of just over 5 million people. Breathing fumes from gas cooking indoors created more than 1,000 hospital admissions, 208 early deaths and more than 3,000 new cases of childhood asthma each year.
Yeah. Curious if this will cause a pro gas culture war in NZ too.
Not as much as pro wood burner would be.
Weirdly enough, a modern wood burner is a lot better than a gas stove. I guess because the fumes are immediately vented outside?
