Abstract
- New York has become the first state to ban gas stoves in an effort to reduce emissions and protect indoor air quality. The decision was made after a study found that gas stoves are a leading cause of asthma in U.S. youth. While there was briefly consideration at the federal level to ban gas stoves, the focus has shifted to promoting electric-powered induction stoves as a more efficient and healthier alternative. However, commercial kitchens and labs are currently exempt from the ban. This move follows similar stove bans in California cities, although industry opponents have challenged these bans in court.
