not… quite. these are research findings that what we've long suspected is true: gas stoves aren't great for your indoor environment. the question you should really be asking isn't "why are we saying this now" but "why is there so much pro-natural gas stove propaganda out there in the world when modern energy efficient electric stoves are just as good in the areas that gas excels in at a lower long term cost to the owner?"
what you'll find is that it's the gas companies who are pushing the narrative that gas is better and landlords not performing upgrades because they don't cover their tenants' utility bills so those upgrades cut into their exploitative profit models. so. yes, the problem is gigantic corporations and the capital class in general. but don't shoot the messenger, especially when the messenger has brought you weaponry to arm yourself against a common enemy
