Gas stoves have a negative impact on air quality

Cooking of any kind will cause all sorts of pollutants to spike, including PM2.5 and finer particles.

Does elevated NO2 from gas stoves warrant banning them from buildings? They are great for certain methods of cooking, and can be used sparingly.

In a modern building in a modern city, where just baseline NO2 routinely exceeds 30+ ppb (with CO2, PM2.5, formaldehydes, etc. also reaching unsafe levels), an activated carbon air filter alongside a HEPA filter is necessary to compensate for pollutants out- and indoors anyway—and AFAIK a good air filter setup also lowers nitrogen dioxide levels.

Better question is why was this ever in doubt in peoples minds?

Burning fossil fuels is never 100% clean

Electric stoves have a negative impact on my food quality.

I guess there’s no winning.
