It’s deeply depressing that none of the comments here so far are positive toward this move. The earth will be utterly transformed by climate change in next century to detriment of nearly every living thing on it. We have only one reliable mechanism to mitigate to harm we are causing: ending fossil fuel use. To do that everything that currently uses fossil energy needs to be electrified. Every year we waste letting new buildings get built with gas furnaces makes it that much harder to limit the damage we’ve caused.
Stop using the fact much electrical generation still uses fossil fuels to argue against electrification. Petition to bring new renewable generation online and close coal and gas powered plants instead. Stop romanticizing a gas stove that pollutes the air in your home as you cook at it. Get an induction stove heats just as fast instead.
Stop pretending we have time to “wait and assess” and starting fighting for a livable future on only home we have.
