Just googled it. EU does have a "phase out". News (eceee.org) EU rules out banning gas boilers, aims for ‘gradual phase-out’ instead (EurActiv, 15 Oct 2021) The European Commission will not propose banning gas-fired home boilers “overnight”, a senior EU official has said, explaining that differences in energy mix between EU member states are just too big to apply a one-size-fits-all solution. Will the European Commission put forward regulations to push gas boilers out of the EU market, like it did with the internal combustion engine in the car sector? “It’s a difficult one,” admitted Paula Pinho, director at the European Commission’s energy directorate. On the one hand, the EU executive has indeed introduced requirements across various policy programmes “in order to make sure that we gradually phase out gas boilers,” Pinho said at a European Parliament webinar earlier this week. “But we also need to look at where the different member states stand,” she added, saying some EU countries “are much, much more advanced” than others in terms of decarbonisation. This means gas boilers are likely to stick around for longer in some countries than in others, Pinho said. “We do understand that this cannot occur overnight with a ban,” she explained. “So basically the idea is to gradually allow for the phase-out and put EU recovery money only where we can ensure efficient and sustainable heating. But not to go for the radical solution which would be to simply ban a technology that we see is still very widespread, and is still a reality in many homes.”
Hopefully this silly kerfuffle has raised awareness in the public and will spur manufacturers to develop technologies to mitigate the pollution. Also, I'd love to see someone try to take the gas appliances out of a restaurant kitchen. Electric is simply untenable in that industry.
Or without natural immunity…. We just lived much harsher and much shorter lives so we could pull ourselves up by the bootstraps…
California passed a planned phase out by 2030 last year, so it was at least a trial balloon to suggest it. I'm all for clean"er" natural gas. An outright ban is dumb and possible overreach. https://www.capradio.org/articles/2022/09/24/california-plans-to-phase-out-new-gas-heaters-by-2030/
https://www.reuters.com/article/fac...2-emissions-than-human-activity-idUSL1N2XV1HA The fact that this was very easy to fact check makes me believe your goal was to trigger and "emotionally manipulate" someone to post an article to debunk and you. And Incase you are sincere, then this post alone should make anyone just shut off their brain when you utter any sentence regarding this subject matter.
So the point you were making is that the Twitter sources you use make blatant false claims to further narratives you agree with and push?
Lol… what “right” do people have to use a gas stove? Let’s be clear… the right doesn’t want government regulation and they also don’t want the private sector using ESG….. They don’t want any accountability and prefer to keep the profits and socialize the losses.
