A US Consumer Product Safety commissioner told Bloomberg gas stove usage is a “hidden hazard.” “Any option is on the table. Products that can’t be made safe can be banned,” agency commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. said in a Bloomberg interview. The report said the agency plans “to take action” to address the indoor pollution caused by stoves. CNN has reached out to the CPSC for comment. The CPSC has been considering action on gas stoves for months.
In a statement to CNN, the CPSC said the agency has not proposed any regulatory action on gas stoves at this time, and any regulatory action would “involve a lengthy process.” “Agency staff plans to start gathering data and perspectives from the public on potential hazards associated with gas stoves, and proposed solutions to those hazards later this year,” the commission said in a statement.
No !
So if you hermetically seal a small room and run a gas stove the air quality eventually becomes like that in NYC or LA?
No One needs a High Capacity Assault Stove. We need Common-Sense Gas Stove Control Laws. ✊ JillBidenIsAGasStoveEnabler
They should ban gas water heaters, which run all day with no ventilation. Hood ventilation above gas stoves is adequate. Even cooking food can be harmful if inhaled without proper ventilation.
Now, this is a step too far. Any good chef wants his/her gas stove. Just don't go there.
Cheap propaganda for doing really good electric industry businesses. No correlation between asthma and gas consumption.
After 40 years of living in Delaware and half his presidency Biden is building a wall around his home. I thought Joe said walls don’t work. Get woke!
15 yes old or bot is the real question
🤡
Brought to you by: the Electric Company…serving your needs now and in the future with clean (😂) energy.
OK... Now this is a bit insane isn't it?
I think a ban on democrats would cure all our problems!
Another greedy gov't money grab scheme that hurts working class Americans. Not surprised.
An American population is considering never to listen to CNN parody.
LOL yeah try and come for my stove.
Guess doesn’t give a crap about the bills running an electric stove 🤔 Good one knocking the poor down more!! 😂😂
It's more likely that they'll regulate emissions or require better installation instead of banning
So, what happens when we have everything electric, and everyone uses too much electricity and blows a major power grid? I mean wasn't this causing problems already?
Aren’t all the members of this federal agency, the US PSC, appointed by the POTUS? They aren’t really an independent government agency. It’s part of the Green New Deal that Americans didn’t want, but got passed as the Recovery Acts.
Get out of my kitchen! Seriously! Get out!
Get outta here.🤣
I guess they’re going to make a collage side and start fires to be able to cook sand house we won’t be able to get gas stoves no more or they’re just destroying us pretty soon will all be living in tents with no bathrooms and no food
GFY
That is definitely over reach. Not giving up my gas stove POTUS
The way this is written, childhood asthma is causing indoor pollution. That is very concerning! 🤣
Please drop your old gas stoves at 4330 East West Highway Bethesda, MD 20814
Republicans think that the government's going to break into their house with crowbars and pry the gas stove from their kitchen wall. What's really going to happen is, if this passes, production of gas stoves will be banned and they'll slowly phase themselves out as they break.
As Jill Biden uses one? 😂 ridiculous
What?!! No way, please say it isn't so!!! I love gas!!
I don’t have kids in my house. But the feds are going to ban me too?!
What a joke
Now do gas fireplaces.
idiocy
What a crock
No
Of course…”The Children” phrase is used to strike fear into all. There are more electric than gas stoves. So, none of this nonsense is possible. Total BS and all about communism.
Eh?
We need sanctuary states for gas stoves
Good luck with that crap
Next ban breathing and farting
Maybe improve ventilation or maybe people should spend more time outdoors. Stop banning stuff!
If they care so much about childhood asthma, I was going to say wait until they find out about child obesity and liver disease. But they know about that and don’t care. If something has been used for decades and there is a rise all of a sudden in something, that’s not the thing
How many of those kids that got asthma is because their parents use the oven as their primary heat source?
bhangi247 time for induction?
Good timing. 👍
This can’t be real
Correlation is not causation 🤦🏻♀️
Gas stoves get the job done faster 💯
This is how you turn Dems into Republicans. Keep inserting yourself into places the people dont want and the next thing you know = No more Dems.
Don't start this nonsense. We have been using gas stove all our lives, no one has asthma. Furthermore, cooking with gas is way better
What’s next look at our toilet paper
If the electricity goes out, you can't cook or stay warm. Gas stoves can be used to cook and stay warm in a power outage. Gas is cheaper than electric. Gas stoves are not dangerous if you ventilate them. That's why we have ventilated them forever and never had a problem.
To paraphrase Charlton Heston as George Taylor in Planet of the Apes: Take your stinking regulations off my gas stove, you damned dirty regulators!
please cnn, can you stop don lemon speaking of harry and meghan,,, he is very negative and a bitter soul!
Gas is more dangerous to people than Government? That would be an interesting investigation.
I think the first step would be to update applicable building codes to ensure any gas stove had a vent hood that vents outside the home. Far too many builders install gas stoves with recirculating vents.
Most of the pollution from cooking comes from the actual cooking itself not natural gas. Fume hoods are the solution
They better give me money to pay for an electric one then.
Fuck that propane is the best. Send the crotch goblins outside
Why ban? Let the market adjust
They might consider better regulations on venting. I hope they don't ban gas stoves.
I don’t believe in coincidences therefore I will not believe this study has nothing to do with the major gas crisis :) not that it mattered, they just trying to reduce consumers, probably :)
This is about money, not pollution. The pollution I see is the Biden administration. You are so worried about pollution but fly out a bill to sign while he is on vacation. As usual, always on vacation.
Reduce dependence on gas!
Come and take it
another fakenews. Asian countries mainly use gas stove.
You know while we are at it, let's ban people walking or going outdoors while the sun is out cos it causes skin cancer
Tell that to the restaurant chefs, I dare you. 😂
And what about car emissions 🤷🏽♀️
lol gov be like Gas bill $25 ❌ Electric bill $10,000 ✅
We will need way more energy in the future for all of the electricity that will be demanded of the grid. Nuclear power plants for everyone!
I'm definitely not cooking on a electric stove not the same
They are using child asthma a smoke screen. Don’t fall for it.
In South Africa where we face 50% electricity power outages on a daily basis every day due to underproduction and demand, the switch solar power has mushroomed BUT cannot supply the energy for a stove and gas is considered the way to go
Should have banned them years ago.
Gas ovens?! Will gas fireplaces be next?! Cause burning trees is better in wood burning fireplaces, right? What Einstein came up with this one?
So you're even more dependent on the sabotaged electric grid. You will own nothing while starving and freezing in the dark.
No
This is another goverment overstep! At what point are people going to finally use the 2nd amendment.. this is ridiculous!!! Heading the right way for an uprising against the government
I always wanted a commercial gas range with 6 burners and a grill. Took 40 years to get everything right to get one with telescoping downdraft cost $9k for package. Crack a window. Low emissions electric start.
Didn't know that!
Haha we will make our own.
Hell naw I gotta eat
You’d be better of getting rid of a federal agency because they can’t cook your food . Is CNN trying to CNN itself again?
I live in a very rural area. Power goes out if the wind blows hard. If not for my gas stove, many cold days, we would have no heat or be able to cook. I have both gas and electric heating. Shouldn’t have that option taken from me. Definitely overreach.
They want to force everyone to electric. Utility political funds available to all politicians. Once they hold the monopoly on energy, they can charge whatever they want.
Good. Induction are superior to gas and safer
Gas stoves have been around for decades and now for some reason childhood asthma is on the rise because of them? 🧐 sounds like bull💩 to me.
The bugs will be served cold.
Huge overreach..
I’ll give you my gas oven when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.
Pollution. Right. They are keeping the gas to sell to Europe who proudly refused Russian gas, while making you pay for redoing your kitchens ;) That's the truth!
Stop lying in your click bait headlines. Acting like this is about 'considering a ban on gas stoves' is like saying a report on seat belt safety is 'considering banning cars.'
We have an electric stove and when I want to cook with gas I spark up the grill and use a cast iron pan. Easy-peasy. Don't sweat the small stuff.
Grandfathering it in makes more sense.
ban Teflon pans first
Turn the vent on and it's fine. This is a bunch of bs and most likely an excuse for removing natural gas.
Ah, yes, always say it's related to children to push through policies unquestioned. Are parents going to be banned from purchasing/smoking cigarettes or pot, too?
Let the lawsuits on that communist agency begin
Good luck with that. Clowns.
I disagree based on growing up that way and many other people who still live with gas. I never knew a person with asthma growing up. I think they need to look into the way kids are living now...like less walking to school, less playing outside, less moving anything.
Gas can also keep you warm when the power goes out.
They make the sudden deaths too!
I do not agree...we have gone over board with trying to increase ourselves with pureness that can not be achieved unless we live in plastic bubbles and no longer eat food.
Stop voting for bigger government or you’ll get more of this crap
Gas stoves are just better. I’ve had both electric (even induction), and gas is just better. Stop this stupid crap that has such a minimal impact. Ban private jets if you want to make a climate dent….
Uhm, don’t ban gas stoves? POTUS
🤣🤣🤣
Wrong gas stoves are more efficient than electric stoves are they just want everything electric so it kills the electric grids
My wife has known this for over 50 years. She practically never turns this instrument of death on and makes restaurant reservations to save our lives!
Imaginary climate religion in the sky
What happens if there’s a blackout when i switch to induction? Then i have to buy takeout or use charcoal ?😂🤔
don't give up your guns
This is shocking! Hoping that this will spreadawareness on the risks of indoor pollution and its link to childhood asthma.
Pressing (X) for doubt.
I’m surprised they haven’t banned fireplaces. But I guess no one “encourages” them to do that . . .
Now their concerned about after how many years? The Twitter Files says they were in on the mayhem and the experimental jabs worsened the cause of people with respiratory inflammation. Nah, they want an all electric world & vehicles.
It is GMOs. Not gas stoves, please.
Omg. You lefty’s are pathetic. What next.
~ woah.
What about junk food? Why don't you limit junk food corporations to stopping selling too much junk food and letting Americans cook on electric stoves?
The rv life
Isn’t there more important things to do than stoves? CNN isn’t a news channel anymore 🤡
Um...these are common in most low income housing areas, or old buildings. So...another screwing over of the lower, middle class?
So this is just something new? Gas has been around for decades, and children are just now starting to have more asthma issues? Ooooookay.
Wait a second Americans cooking at home? What movie is that? Scifi
What? I hate electric stoves! So, I guess that would mean the next stove I have has to be a stove I hate. Boo. So what about grilling?
You have to be kidding lol. Know a living sht ton of people growing up with gas stoves. Guess what......? No issues. So what is the real angle here...?
Electric stoves suck the juice of the ass!
😒😒😒😒😒😒
Ventilate your kitchen. Simple.
This just proves government didn't do their due diligence when they pushed the use of natural gas on us. It was probably a lobbyist and a few politicians laughing all the way to the bank while screwing the US consumer.
Gas stove are the majority in the world. The USA doesn't use gas because houses are made of paper, cardboard and wood. In the rest of the world houses are made of bricks and concrete and don't catch fire.
Idiots !!
We used to (3 years ago) laugh at the British for all of their restrictions...(TV license, 28+ to buy a butter knife, etc). Little did we know, this president would try to one up them
Sick of the liberal assault on fossil fuels and the lamestream media propaganda.
Proof that some of you will bitch about anything.
So now the gov’t wants to regulate how we cook our food. Insane
More meddling in our private lives !!
Completely absurd. Based on one “study” that was not well done and full of problems. Govt has no business banning our stoves
this is absolutely nuts. They didn't do actual research they just used a calculation to figure out that number. Smoking is a way higher link.
Well they going to pay for everyone to get electric ones if so
When the power goes out, I can still cook and my gas oven heats my downstairs. And my gas has never gone out. My electric not so reliable and downed lines are more dangerous than so called indoor pollution...
'Africa' still using jikos
This is another federal agency that needs to be defunded.
There has been gas stoves since 1836. The Federal Government is behind this to eliminate all gas use. Such a corrupt government we have!!!
Tell me it’s still a free country.
Fix the gun problem and stop trying to distract people with stupid things like stovetops. You don’t need to ban stovetops; replace them for free for families in this situation. Problem solved.
This is not GAS
What? Generations grew up with gas stoves with no problems.
Ok, now this is getting a little ridiculous. Gas stoves are the best.
Guns kill WAYYYY more people. EVERYDAY FkN DAY
Oh ffs.
Prove to me the author of the report isn’t a Liberal activist
Then why not regulate the waste incinerators and ash sites!! And regulate the standards for ventilation!! Gas stoves all my life and no asthma anywhere in my family!!
What BS! A ban on gas stoves when there is a rising global energy crisis? I smell a rat. elonmusk are you keeping track of everything that is going on?
How asinine
Ridiculous
Please!!!!
Does lunacy ever end with the Left?
Oh please. I had terrible asthma growing up as a kid during the mid/late 90s to the early 2000s. But never in all those years was it caused by the kitchen stove when my mother cooked. Otherwise, we would have switched to an electric stove.
Typical government overreach.
My brother had asthma as a child. We didn‘t have a gas stove.
Which should be banned?
Who paid for the study? What's next, dirty carpets, fireplaces, air-conditioning, TV sets, farting?
Virtue signaling with no thought of how this will impact daily life. Brown outs, power grid load, etc cannot support this policy, along with all electric cars, all electric heat, etc.
Better ban lawnmowers and cigarettes too if you want to be consistent.
My gas stove caused all the pollution in India.
you would think they would find something more pressing to deal with than gas stoves.
Mm no
Will the feds pay for anyone who needs to upgrade their electrical to install an electric stove/oven? It is not just a swap out 1 for 1
You will pry my gas stove from my cold, dead hands. THIS is a hill I’m willing to die on
Little by little until you have nothing left and only depend on them.
More control. She on they will tell us how often we can breathe
Yes! We switched from gas to induction and LOVE it. We can boil water in like a minute and the surface is cool touch - great for when a kid touches the cook surface. Induction baby!
It just the government trying shut down natural gas, they are environmental in sheep wool
News Flash from this HVAC contractor. Eliminating gas stoves will not solve the issue. The problem, if they would look a little deeper, is inadequate ventilation of virtually all housing built since the early 80's.
When the grids go down and they will with so many households switching to total electricity. Your cars won't run and you won't be able to cook. They know and like lemmings many will just fall in line.
Come and take it..
It is a bummer that gas stoves could have health repercussions because they are 486,221 times better than electric.
Better fact check this one..
We need more government 🤦🏽
Teec90 Check it many hoods or out ducts are undersized! Plus people forget to put on or run on low when high is required if oven on! Plus all the moisture. We have only propane here so no gas! Waiting on the new 172 degree water-Hydrogen piezo tweeter speaker heat pump! Game changer!
They should be prepared to hear the words NO! WE WILL NOT COMPLY!!!!
Gas stoves have been around for awhile now. Why all of a sudden the concern
Gas stoves have been around for years now it creates Asthma!!! Whatare they going to ban next
More ClimateScam hardship imposition for advancement of the cult message. Natural gas provides a reliable, efficient, financially reasonable energy source. The grid is already overloaded and faltering. Stop injecting myths into the mix.
Why not just upgrade the ventilation requirements for stoves?
And when power is out use a wood stove?
Government wants to be able to control your ability to cook food...
Want to start a revolution? Because this is how you do it.
just mandate hoods
Really ?!
Ban everything, makes it easier
As I sit in a power outage right now, and the only thing that works is gas. Gas is saving many lives right now in Cali so piss off with that nonsense
Provide any alternative source that is cheaper than gas before the initiative. Have a glance at industries that consume more gas.
Gas prices in California have tripled in the last couple of months. The gauging is on.
Liars. They want to stop natural gas useage. It's also easier for government to shut of your electricity. It's all part of the population control plan. If you can't cook, it's easier to control you. Pay attention America!
It’s another thing that distracts from what’s really causing asthma . V
They should ban all cigarettes while they are at it. Nothing like growing up in a house where the parents smoke like chimneys. But they make too much tax money on that so that toxicity is fine I guess.
This federal agency is just trying to do something to justify its existence. Hell, Humans or earlier forms of them have been using fire for at least a few hundred thousand years, if not a million years. Now they are going it ban it indoors? Gimme a break!
Yea, the rising childhood obesity rate has nothing to do with this… definitely the stoves.
Gotta stress the electrical grid more somehow. Gas is a far better cooking medium. Electric is trash. I don’t know why they are wanting to be so controlling over everyone. I don’t understand why people seem to be ok with the extreme government overreach.
Amazing fake science. If natural gas were that dangerous then virtually everyone in Europe must be toast, because I've never been to a house or restaurant, in the many years I lived there, that didn't use natural gas to cook.
Hahahah.....now electricity'only' that they will produce with a solar panel in Seattle. Nabobs we live with nabobs
We have used gas stoves for years. This seems suspect. I’m betting just more BS to further their green agenda.
It's actually quite baffling to me that in the last few centuries we've still never found a way to emulate a stovetop fire without using gas. Why do we only have electrics
Childhood asthma has a more conclusive link to diet than in home has stoves. This is easily proven by the many gas stoves back in the day in holes and the low childhood asthma rates.🙄
90% of all new buildings units are now electric not gas .
Dude what about all the fires started by the unhoused 🫠
Are they eating crickets yet?
Yes this is very important. Hopefully a family member of someone from congress gets this high paying job to over see it
Gas stoves work 99.99999999999% of the time. I bet electric stoves don't.
Love how they're acting like they care about children's health.
nah they want everyone to be on electricity
From my cold dead hands
This is simply another back door assault on fossil fuels.
What if you don’t have children, or they aren't asmatic? Why does this administration feel compelled to rule every breath of our lives?
😂😂😂😂 all of the rest of the world would be asthmathic for that matter 😂😂😂😂
Just admit this administration screwed up our energy and looking to save natural gas!
The traditional environmental protection is to protect u from others wrongdoings, not protect u from ur own.
Clown world
“Trumka told Bloomberg the agency plans to open public comment on gas stove hazards. Options besides a ban include “setting standards on emissions from the appliances.” That’s hardly “considering a ban “.
Just ban everything, government knows best.
LOL this is fucking bonkers
