The head of the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced he has no plans to ban gas stoves days after a report said officials with the agency were considering putting a stop to the use of them.
"Over the past several days, there has been a lot of attention paid to gas stove emissions and to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Research indicates that emissions from gas stoves can be hazardous, and the CPSC is looking for ways to reduce related indoor air quality hazards," CPSC Chair Alexander Hoehn-Saric said in a statement Wednesday. "But to be clear, I am not looking to ban gas stoves and the CPSC has no proceeding to do so."
The news comes after a U.S. Consumer Product Safety commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. said in an interview with Bloomberg the agency was considering a ban because gas stoves have become a "hidden hazard."

In his statement Wednesday, Hoehn-Saric said the agency is researching the gas emissions from the stoves and how to address health risks, as well as strengthening safety standards.
"This spring, we will be asking the public to provide us with information about gas stove emissions and potential solutions for reducing any associated risks. This is part of our product safety mission – learning about hazards and working to make products safer," Hoehn-Saric said.

Not I.And people ask me why I want to become an ex-pat?
Then why did the CPSC commissioner say that they were considering a ban? The only reason for all this "ado" being raised, is because the bidet admin brought it up.Much ado about nothing.
Trial balloon.Then why did the CPSC commissioner say that they were considering a ban? The only reason for all this "ado" being raised, is because the bidet admin brought it up.
I know that, and you know that, but the loony left is trying say it's us that started making a big deal out of it. Which is a big fat lie they are telling.Trial balloon.
Put this idea out, and judge public reaction.
@searcher , why was my post funny?
There already is.There isn't going to be a ban on gas stoves. Just more msm & internet madness. Views and ratings.
70ishI'm 65
Don’t know if this is law yet. But California is leading the way trying to eliminate gas appliances. Also, new homes have to be wired for Electric appliances, EV and solar.There already is.
In Gnu Yuck, they're banning new installations by 2030.
I don't know how old you are, friend...I'm 65 and lived through the early-1970s energy hysteria. All of a sudden, the gas utilities were arm-twisted into not accepting new connections...because of a "nationwide natural-gas shortage." Millions of homes were put up in about six years, all-electric.
And INCREDIBLY expensive to heat...to say nothing of substandard kitchen ranges. No doubt many of them were retrofitted in the sane-again 1980s; but that costs huge quantities of $$$$.
Yes, it can happen. Especially with the idiots we have in power positions.
New homes in California are required to have all electric appliances by 2026, according to new government rules, to help reduce the state’s carbon footprint and improve air quality.
The draft framework, published by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) on Tuesday, lays out how California intends to reach “carbon neutrality” by 2045.
That means no more gas-powered furnaces, ovens or other appliances. The same rules will apply to new commercial buildings by 2029.
For existing homes, the state agency calls for 80 per cent of new appliances to be electric by 2030 – once the life cycle of a current appliance ends – with that increasing to 100 per cent by 2035.
So why did the commissioner say what he said? He really said it, but you think peoples negative reaction to him saying it, is the much ado about nothing?There isn't going to be a ban on gas stoves. Just more msm & internet madness. Views and ratings.
Again, why did he even say it
You can't deduce why the commissioner would say such a thing? Is he known for pulling stuff out his ass and talking shit about stuff he knows ain't real?I don't know. lol
Is he known for pulling stuff out his ass and talking shit about stuff he knows ain't real?
