Natural gas is almost entirely methane – a potent greenhouse gas responsible for at least one-third of global warming today. Recent studies have found natural gas stoves increase the risk of respiratory problems and asthma in kids. oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2…

We tuned into @OPBTOL this week and were excited to hear @GovTinaKotek say she's "110% committed" to fighting climate change. She has an opportunity to be a real leader if she puts that commitment into action. opb.org/article/2023/10/17/o…

If you burn it, you breathe it. Gas stoves emit a dangerous pollutant that puts our health at risk. @jeffbradynews reports on new research, which reveals the fossil fuel industry KNEW about it's "NOx problem" as early as 1970. And worked to cover it up. npr.org/2023/10/17/118355160…
