I’ll be thankful if the temperature drops below 105 degrees at least one day a week this winter.
Wood provides good heat
I don’t need my government’s permission to use my fireplace.
Air quality index is 19 this morning. But the high today is only going to hit 60°.
You’ll have to pry my firewood from my cold dead hands.
Nope. I am using to heat my home, I have an abundance of it, it is a renewable resource, and it saves me a ton of money.
Imagine if they had spent even a fraction of what they wasted in Ukraine on initial attack (instead of spending multi millions to pay GS12's to sit and watch it burn itself out of fuel in order to support their Climate Change agenda.
maybe if they privatized wildland fire fighting the politicians could find a way to racketeer it and we might get some clean air in summer finally and slow down the conversion of North America into a desert wasteland.
as it is, fire management gets in trouble with their politician overlords for spending too much on initial attack, but huge amounts of money is spent after a fire goes big and all they can do is watch
for a fraction of what they spent to support Bidens racketeering in Ukraine they could have sent overkill air support and crews to every little fire that pops up (like they should)
Ill send you some pics of our fireplace on full blast and our backyard leaf burn while we’re eating a cheeseburger. 😆
Not to worry. Soon you won’t be allowed to use anything to heat your home thanks to Biden Harris and the evil bastards running the bureaucracy.
“PM2.5, VCOs, etc. are verifiably linked to deadly and disabling illnesses.”
Haven’t you ever heard “what doesn’t kill me makes me stronger”? This is just like resistance training for your lungs.
Just admit it, you are against people using wood for heating. Why I don't know, unless you have some irrational fear of ppm levels of pollutants that are unlikely to have any influence on the air in your house already. Do you avoid cooking, or using any cleaning products too?
25 inhabitants per square mile is a very low density of housing, and common even in what most people would call rural areas. The US Census map cuts off at 50 inhabitants per square mile, and those places are really remote.
Here’s my response to your proposal: GFY. We heat with wood in the winter. 3 to 4 cords worth. We’re not about to shiver so some virtue-sniveling jerk can feel good about themselves.
Get used to the smoke. It's a consequence of a century of government failures (and ongoing). It will take generations to correct, and the government will proffer that it will take a lot of money (and that they can 'fix' it, when they're not blaming it those who don't comply with their dictates, i.e., 'fossil fuels' and other human CO2 activities).
Falling into the trap of wishing for clear skies because you believe it's 'normal' is exactly what progressives want you to do. i.e.,
You can thank the nearest libtard for perpetual wildfires due to their retarded policies against fire protection
