    shaving off roughly two years of an average person’s life span.

    Press X to doubt

      The gas stoves themselves aren’t the only reason, but they help contribute to a lower lifespan. Also 2 years over the course of, like, 75 years? Yeah that sounds about right

        No, that doesn’t sound right. Even with totally unrealistic assumption that stove kills every victim at birth, it would need to kill ~2,5% of all newborns. Bullshit

        Edit: I’m absolutely astonished that my previous post got more downvotes than upvotes. It shows the scale of failure of the education system

          I don’t know what your argument was exactly, but you make zero sense here? Going from an average lifetime reduction to “kill 2.5% of all newborns” just isn’t the same
