I wonder if this is actually related to wanting to reduce gas use for “national security” reasons, since they are going to export the gas instead to Europe as a replacement for the pipeline they blew up.
I doubt it. Gas stoves are a tiny drop compared to gas heating and power generation.
Though the gas industry does fund lots of ads for gas stove, to get people to get gas in their homes, so they use it for heating. So maybe the gov is trying to do an UNO reverse, and ban new gas stoves as a way to try to get fewer houses to have gas heating?
I dunno, I feel like I've been seeing stuff for like a decade about how bad gas stoves are for air quality, so as jaded as I am, I'm inclined to take the ban mostly at face value.
