Meanwhile Seattle is under a perpetual cloud of choking smoke for like 2 months out of every year because WA and Canada are incompetent when it comes to forest management, and the best people can do to pretend to care is tell you to rubber band a furnace filter to a box fan and wear N95 masks to work.

Banning wood stoves is like banning plastic bags. It's a superficial, empty gesture that is a drop in the bucket that makes no meaningful impact.

I'll continue to heat my cabin with wood, thank you.
