Guest: Marco Chown Oved, climate change reporter
After the Consumer Product Safety Commission in the U.S. said it was considering banning new gas stoves amid research that links them to childhood asthma, Republican lawmakers, conservative pundits and right wing social media commentators were aflame with reaction. They imply it is an infringement on freedom, but the science is clear. In addition to health concerns, natural gas includes methane, a catalyst in climate change that is 86 times more warming than carbon dioxide. Marco Chown Oved, a climate change reporter, joins "This Matters" to share the burning truth behind gas stoves and how it fanned the flames of a culture war.
