GAS EMISSION HAZARD AND WAYS TO PREVENT IT ©Adedeji, Adewale H.O.K People use a variety of heat sources to cook food, including gas, electricity, etcetera. Each of these heat sources can create indoor air pollution during cooking. Natural gas and propane stoves releases carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and other harmful pollutants into the air, which can be toxic to people and pets. When you use a gas stove, it emits poisonous gases called nitrogen oxides, including nitrogen dioxide, a respiratory irritant thought to trigger asthma. Spending too much of time in an enclosed kitchen, inhaling these fumes causes Carbon Monoxide to build up in your bloodstream, which can lead to severe tissue damage. When too much carbon monoxide is in the air, your body replaces the oxygen in your red blood cells with carbon monoxide. Carbon Monoxide poisoning is extremely serious and can be life threatening. High levels of natural gas exposure can cause natural gas poisoning, which is characterized by fatig
