> This whole "gas is bad for the environment" is bunk when fossil fuels are required to generate al that electricity
Practically all of the US has some renewable mix, so all the US already away from fossil fuels generating "all" the electricity (renewables + nuclear being 0%).
Over 30% of the electricity in my home is from wind and solar alone.
You also really shouldn't be using your stove to provide warmth in your home since you're probably not venting out the NOx, CO2, and CO emissions. CO poisoning kills a lot of people doing what you're claiming is a benefit.
