That makes sense in a city where venting your stove outside often means venting up into neighbors windows above you.

In fact there was a post on Reddit just last week or so that got a lot of attention on the front page where someone reported that they had been on all kinds of medications for breathing problems until they figure it out that a restaurant located at street level was venting out of their building and all the gases were coming up through their open window into their apartment located on a higher level just across the alleyway.

So banning gas stoves entirely within a city makes perfect sense and is a good practice

I’m sure it is, but to say that its not happening at all is disingenuous. It is happening and it could happen in other cities.

I didn’t realize that cities were banning them entirely but after thinking about it it’s obviously a good practice

If people want to use gas stoves in an area where their vented fumes aren’t going to end up in somebody elses building that’s entirely different
