Fumes in Focus

 

This program originally aired on January 15, 2024

Lawmakers and advocates have called upon Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum to launch an investigation into NW Natural for misleading consumers about the health impacts from gas. In their letter to Rosenblum they detail how NW Natural has taken a leaf from the tobacco industry in misleading consumers about the dangerous toxins emitted from their gas cookstoves. 

On this episode of Locus Focus we talk with Mason Leavitt with Beyond Toxics and Aya Cockram with Fossil Free Eugene, about Beyond Toxics' new report, Fumes in Focus: Visualizing Air Pollution from Gas Stoves, that details the vast array of toxins that are emitted from the gas stoves in our kitchens.
