The common kitchen appliance plays an outsized role in exposure to nitrogen dioxide, a toxic air pollutant.
Pollution from gas stoves accounts for more than half of some [US] Americans’ total exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a toxin linked to asthma, a study in the academic journal PNAS Nexus concludes. The findings, published this month, provide the first nationwide, community-level estimates of residential NO2 exposure.

Cool, I love my gas stove, but you need a powerful, vented hood fan that is an appliance of its own (i.e. expensive), and then use it whenever the gas is on. Most homes don't have this so induction is best.
