Re : stoves emit ten times as much PM as a diesel truck:

And 60 to 100 times as much as a diesel-engined car.

Of course they are relating the emissions to the fuel in both cases so the comparison is not valid, but I take their point.

Changing the hardware to those stoves demonstrated last week in Washington on The Mall would dramatically reduce the emissions from burning wood.

Do you find it humorous that those waving the flags of alarm favour ending the use of fossil fuels are also promoting the expanded use of LPG? And the burning of renewable biofuels?

In the meantime, wood burning tinkerers are doing better than ever at reducing emissions. ‎ Good on y'all.

Interesting findings closer to home!
