I think it's the concern about CO2 emissions that are political.

Yeah, which is nuts.

I don't know – I'm not the one who doesn't think we should reduce CO2 emissions.

By comparison, the CO2 emissions released by a residential gas cooker is in the noise. Eliminating them all will accomplish very little in the grand scheme of things (whilst industry in China and India continue to pollute on a massive scale).

> ...annual methane emissions from all gas stoves in U.S. homes have a climate impact comparable to the annual carbon dioxide emissions of 500,000 cars. [1]

That doesn't seem like "noise" or "very little" to me. And we don't fix climate change with one big thing but rather by fixing 1,000 smaller things.

This is part of the solution, and it's not too small to ignore.
