Researchers used electric stoves to treat asthma. It worked.

"Led by Dr. Ash Sehgal, a professor at Case Western’s School of Medicine, researchers recruited families from across the Cleveland and Akron areas where at least one person had asthma. Using funds from the Biden-era Inflation Reduction Act, they replaced gas stoves with electric induction stoves in 91 homes.

And then they did something unprecedented: They studied whether people got less sick after they stopped cooking with gas. It was the first time time scientists had replaced gas ranges with electric ranges and examined the health impacts. "

I'm not going to claim #ClimateChange is real, or that it is increasing at an alarming rate, but when I was a kid, the sun in the #DMV was never obscured by wildfire #smoke and yet, this is the second time in less than 5 years we've had this issue.

#WildfireSmoke #airquality

This is no exaggeration; there’s smoke lingering in the streets & lawns, visibility is less than 1 mile, you cannot see the horizon.
