Gas Stoves and Asthma

The International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health study claims that 12.7% of cases of childhood asthma in the U.S. could be due to gas stoves in the home. As you would expect, the gas industry has pushed back on the study labeling it a “headline grabbing approach.”

My take is hardcore advocates on both sides of the argument due more harm than good. A scientific study should never include the word could. Either science proves something or it doesn't. That's the purpose of science.

As Dr Cowan states, “The problem of what causes asthma is really complicated. And there’s clearly more than one factor. We know that indoor air quality is really important, but for children with asthma, it’s more complex than just one thing.” 
There is a growing push to ban gas stoves, but if environmentalists want to do this the right way, then conduct rigorous scientific research.
