Car drivers:
Wood stoves are a major problem. As soon as it gets cold in Germany, air pollution rises from below 5µg/m^3 to 20-100 µg/m^3 and stays there for months (in this particular area).
Wood stove smells good so acceptable air pollution.
I know you're making a joke but this is how the majority of people view things like air pollution.
Does this mean we can go back to 2 stroke engines then? That would be amazing, I mean not for the planet but I love that smell so much…
The sound on the other hand..
Absolutely.
Somebody should tell them about the toasty glow of atomic energy.
Dang. In wildfire season here in western Canada, my air filter gets brought out well before the 100 mark.
As someone who lives in a wood-heated house, what do you suggest I do? I'd rather not freeze to death and I can't afford any other heating options
