Uh, according to the article you are supposed to be dead. Your lungs should have given out when you were twelve years old.

Are you sure you are still alive?

Smokeless wood heaters really work— by burning-off the smoke that rises to the top.

Honestly if any of things were legitimate concerns, they would be addressing gas leaf blowers- IMHO ubiquitous, overused and huge amounts of exhaust

"Some of the happier memories I have from growing up was going out on bitterly cold winter days to help my father bring in firewood for our home's wood stove.

That thing evoked a toasty warmth that just can't be had with electric. It was the aroma of the wood burning downstairs in the basement, permeating throughout the house."

Smells like home sweet home. Add to the scene, an old man in front of fireplace, smoking a pipe. THIS is America!

Just because it’s Australia don’t think for a moment climate change activists aren’t going to try it here.

The “elites” are flying into Davos right now to dream up the next batch of misery for our future.

They say “ACT” like everyone know what that is. I read the article and still have no idea.

Ban everything and we’ll all live forever. But it won’t be fun.

there you are in your home,enjoying the holidays, the roaring fire, glad you can’t make it to work while spending your newfound free time with your family...and BOOM! the feds crash down your door with guns drawn and haul you, your wife and your little children off to prison...FOR BURNING FIREWOOD IN A FIREPLACE! which it was designed for in the first place. remember friends, “elections have consequences and then everyone suffers the consequences”. including you.
