A lot of it does come from improperly ventilated stoves though.

And I'll say I highly doubt it is 100% of cases. I did say some percentage, not all. My statement is pretty much a safe fact for just about anything. There is some percentage of folks that prefer something just because they've been told they should prefer it.

i made the mistake of trying to use a round bottom wok with a ring to keep it balanced for many years and it simply did not work. i've moved to a flat bottom wok now and it's working perfectly. i have been considering moving to induction from gas for well over a year but i think i'll wait to see how the rebates look from the recent inflation bill. worst case scenario if induction doesnt work well for wok cooking i'll get a portable burner and use that when i need to cook in a wok. |

Right now it's the learning curve. I'm sold on induction for some tasks. The question is whether I want any gas. And then how to have both nicely...

i've been using an air fryer more lately for most meals. the only thing i really use the oven for is making taco meat, and frozen pizza's. i'm quite sure electric would suit my needs!

Flat bottomed woks do not perform anything like the real ones. It's been a loooong time since I've used a nice evenly heating wok over gas.

Earlier this year I had posted this:
https://www.ft86club.com/forums/show...&postcount=671 Sweden finds the largest deposit of rare earth elements: https://www.euronews.com/green/2023/...earth-elements And now we have this: India finds 5.9 tonnes of Lithium: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/...4.cms?from=mdr In other news, cheaper grid storage batteries could be on the horizon. This is exciting for storing wind and solar for the grid, but also for personal use. It would be nice to have a battery pack for the home with little to no fire risk that is cheaper. At $7/kWh versus current $130-150 kWh for lithium-ion, the batteries themselves should be much cheaper, but the installation and inverters and other components would still be the same, so in all, the batteries shouldn't be super cheap. For instance, a 13.5kWh Tesla Powerwall, which includes installation, is like $11k, but the battery is only $2k at $150/kWh, and it would drop to $100, so now $9k instead of $11k. Good, but not great. The energy density isn't as good, so these wouldn't be for cars. For large grid storage systems, the price savings would be significant.

Seems like this belongs here too. I've only watched the first hour. I might make some comments later, but I don't think the world could sustain double the population without huge changes in more than just the energy systems. Land use would have to change a lot.

This plant produces its own nitrogen/fertilizer using bacteria. Could it be adapted to other crops, so we aren't as reliant on fossil fuels to make ammonia?
