"New wood burning stoves billed as more environmentally friendly still emit 750 times more tiny particle pollution than a modern HGV truck, a report has shown. [...] Wood burners also triple the level of harmful pollution inside homes and should be sold with a health warning, said the scientist behind a study published in December. The researchers advised that the stoves should not be used around elderly people or children." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/oct/09/eco-wood-stoves-emit-pollution-hgv-ecodesign

Just remove the bits that don’t pass your censorship and post it for me.

I live almost 50/50 in Uk and Norway and I have seen a definite change in the ordinary people’s attitude over the last year. Many people I speak to in Norway are very sceptical about the future use of electrical vehicles and wind power reflecting exactly the ordinary people’s views in Scotland. Maybe the Green parties need to go out and gather the opinions of the folk who are really suffering because of the war and obvious greed of all those in the energy supply chain. It is not widely publicised but the power shortages now being faced by us all are in part being caused by our increasing reliance on wind and solar energy. As we Nothern Europeans are well aware the wind doesn’t always blow on the coldest days and nor does the sun always shine. If the enviromentalists keep pushing harder and harder there will be an enormous backlash from the ever suffering ordinary voter. Look out the window of your comfortable homes occasionally

I live in a small bungalow by the sea. I’m not on mains gas, I do have LPG heating. I also have a newish multi fuel stove. I try not to use my heating too much, because of the cost, figure on around £60 a week! I normally burn logs, this used to cost around £200 for the entire winter..due to demand that has doubled this year. But is still way cheeper than LPG… I also bought in some stove nuts… Smokeless coal this year….. Just to be sure I have the fuel to keep me warm……

I use a wood stove in Oregon (USA). Nothing beats its heat!

Having grown up using wood heat, it warms you two ways. When your cutting and stacking it then when you’re burning it for heat.

People should wear warm clothes indoors instead of swanning around in shorts and flip flops with the heating turned to 80deg

In my humble oppinion
The coal mines should be reopend. And the coal used to produce gas.
And the remaining coke (carbon) buried in old mines. This would yield low carbon energy.
