Gas stoves leak methane even while off, boosting climate change | CBC News

Emissions from U.S.

gas stoves each year is equivalent to emissions from 500,000 cars, study saysIn this photo provided by climate scientist Rob Jackson, researcher Eric Lebel attaches sensors to a stove to measure how often it is used in Stanford, Calif., in 2020. According to a study published Thursday, Jan. 27, 2022, in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, gas stoves are worse for the climate than previously thought because of constant tiny methane leaks even while they're off.

California plumbers must be terrible

Now do the emissions on our agriculture and industry fishing.

Scientist's have discovered methane leaking from govt officials equalling the emissions of millions of cars a year. Get rid of them while you can.

Now study airplanes, military ships, freight ships, cruise ships. F-off that gas stoves are a huge emitter for bogus climate change.

This push to ALL electric is going to expand the gap between the rich and the poor. Do I heat my home and water or do I eat?

Compare with gasoline, natural gas is much cleaner energy. The amount of emissions from cars and gas stove, are at a completely different scale. Whoever try to play on this, is playing with numbers to mislead people.

Hope you didn’t pay for that study

CBC govt. owned, govt. narrative. electric starters, no pilot light. Think again.

Where exactly is the leakage? What about other gas appliances such as furnaces and hot water heaters?

We actually looked into this before buying a gas cook top. This claim is 100% BS. New ranges have gas lock offs, better valves and no pilot lights. Ours is a hybrid. Gas on top, electric oven. I produce more methane than a new modern gas cook top.

The leaks are a design problem that can or should be fixed by manufacturers, but governments don’t force them. It’s like air pollution. It used to be much worse until manufacturers were forced to develop catalytic converters.

Don't care. Leave my fucking stove alone you climate Nazis.

ooh STF Upz

No shit.

500k cars eh, what is that, rush hour on the 401?

They are coming for your BBQ next.

Based.

What about farting? That must be responsible for at least half of greenhouse gas emissions.

What about 🐄 cows 😎

Stop reporting on climate change as an individual responsibility issue, and instead report on the majority of emissions coming from a handle of corportions. Stop shifting responsibility down. We won't electric stove our way out of this mess.

Or equivalent to one TruckerConvoy2022 TruckersForFreedom

Not mention terrible for your air quality and huge contributing factor in asthma in kids.

I suspect it might be the same for propane stoves too (we have one but I'm trying to get my parents to remove it).

Neat

And 35% of global electricity comes from combustion of coal. 4 types of coal and it’s 40-49% more CO2 intensive than natural gas … so electric stoves are probably worse… plus mining copper… wake up you truth FuelPrices NaturalGas coal power so silly

So we gonna stop cooking?

spurious results. they came to this conclusion after only testing 53 stoves?

Pretty pathetic coverage of the HUGE protest going on, and the small amount of vcoverage you give it is INCREDIBLY biased. Disgusting, how can you call yourselves journalists?

Latest stupid attack to protect environment maybe if government went after the industries which pollute and not everyday people we might actually clean the planet up but then again why would they bite the hand that feeds them! Make the working fools pay the price like always!

Can they not make stoves that don't leak methane when off? Not sure how hard a question that is to ask.

Mine doesn't. Because, it runs on propane.

This is a fucking joke. Any person with a basic knowledge of chemistry and physics can tell, it does not make sense. The one who did the study certainly is not good at calculation.

For f’sakes. The 12 largest container ships in the world produce more GHG than every automobiles on earth. Piss off with the stoves…

Just go with nuclear power

And how many gas stoves are there in the US?

Interesting stat. I’ve often wondered if I’d want a gas stove if the opportunity arose. I guess the answer is no.

So, not such a big deal then.
