Electric Appliance Advocates Backed Study Driving Push To Ban Gas Stoves
The Daily Caller ^ | January 11, 2023 | Jack McEvoy

A recent study that linked gas-burning stoves to childhood asthma cases was backed by two nonprofits that are pushing for Americans to adopt electric stoves.

The study, which states that the stoves account for about 12.7% of childhood asthma cases in the U.S., was partly funded by RMI, a group that seeks to “accelerate the clean energy transition,” and co-authored by Brady Seals, the manager of RMI’s Carbon-Free Buildings arm that aims to retrofit buildings with electric appliances. The study was also co-authored by Rewiring America (RA) Research Associate Talor Gruenwald, who previously worked on RMI’s Carbon-Free Buildings team; RA is a nonprofit that is “focused on electrifying everything” in communities across America, according to its website.

The authors of the study declared that there were no conflicts of interest associated with their research.

RMI, which used the study to promote stove electrification, has received millions in donations from Breakthrough Energy, a green energy investment firm founded by Bill Gates, as well as the Bezos Earth Fund and Bloomberg Philanthropies, according to the RMI 2022 donors report.

RA, which called the study “groundbreaking,” states on its website that “every single retirement of any machine that runs on fossil fuels is an opportunity for electrification.” The group celebrated the passage of the Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), a bill that offers subsidies to households that electrify old appliances such as gas stoves, and created an IRA “calculator” to show individuals how much money one can receive from the subsidies.

The study was produced using a meta-analysis, in which researchers gathered independent studies that documented the effects of gas cooking on children and used statistical methods to combine the results of previous research.

Reminds me of when we had to buy a new dishwasher. The sales pitch was that it saves a lot of water. Of course, it does run for hours. I assume that hot shots in the electric industry are behind the appliance and the hype.

Can’t you adjust the length of cycle?

On our new Bosch you can go from 60 to 150 minutes long.

Most of them died because of asthma caused by gas stoves.

It would be just as accurate to say that mother's milk and baby formula led to all these deaths as well.

I’m 71. I’ve known thousands, maybe tens of thousands, of children. Most of them died because of asthma caused by gas stoves. It’s a massive tragedy.

And yet, during those times that the Democrats controlled both houses of Congress and the White House, nothing was done about it.

I dunno. Maybe. I don’t care enough to check. Just biding my time until I can move to a house I don’t hate.
