This is how it starts and it will ultimately end with a complete ban.

It started with cigarette advertising, then smoking bans, and people letting the stinking government tell them how many gallons to flush and what kind of light bulbs they can have, along with thousands of nigling regulations which only affected a few, so few complained.

People don't have enough sense or gumption to stand up for things on a matter of principle, then scream when their ox gets gored.

I have a 100 year old house, the fireplace and chimney are structural elements. That same fireplace saved our butts when we had a blizzard which knocked out power to the region for days a few years back.

The EPA should be disbanded, and not just for this stunt.

Exactly as I said, ‘boiling the frog slowly’.

You and I must be kindred spirits. I also have a 100+ house but it has no central heat or air. I have used a wood stove for 30+ years now.

I totally agree. The EPA should be dissolved.

Have you shopped for a new washer in the last couple of years? The EPA regs have brought us a product that is terrible!
