MASSPIRG showcases new library program that lends induction cooktops at event highlighting health concerns with gas stoves.
Mothers Out Front, Environment Massachusetts, and Sierra Club joined MASSPIRG at the Robbins Library in Arlington where they highlighted the environmental and public health risks associated with gas stoves; demonstrated how induction cooking works; showcased a new library program that lends induction cooktops; and provided tips for reducing harm and cooking safely as Americans gather for the holidays.
Although growing evidence shows that gas stoves fill kitchens and homes with hazardous air pollution, MASSPIRG Education Fund released a new report that found major retailers including Best Buy, Home Depot, and Lowe’s, were largely failing to warn potential customers of gas stove health concerns – and safety measures that could protect their health. In a survey conducted across 10 states, nearly three-quarters of survey takers were told that gas stove pollution was not a concern, and more than six in 10 were told that ventilation was unnecessary to protect health.
Mothers Out Front demonstrated how induction cooking works and outlined a new library program that lends induction cooktops. You can check here to see if your library has such a program.
