No, you shouldn’t replace your gas stove if it’s new or still has life in it unless you can afford to do so and you want to upgrade to induction which is better in nearly everyway.
Yes, we should regulate gas in homes such that no new homes have gas anything in them except for in the places where it’s absolutely necessary. Although I’m a fan of simply not allowing them on any new construction, I’m also okay with a carbon tax roughly equivalent to their lifetime emissions as a way for people who really want them to get them - I guess I believe choice is in this way is better than no choice as long as a premium price is attached.
This is fairly simple. Sensible people aren’t trying to take away gas for no reason, we’re trying to reduce the harm we cause to ourselves and our planet wherever possible especially when - again - is beneficial in nearly every measurable metric. That doesn’t mean banging down doors and ripping ovens out, it means insuring that when you have to replace your current equipment you do so with non-gas because it’s better for everyone and won’t happen as quickly as we need it to naturally because there is huge money in convincing people gas is good/necessary/manly/better despite the damage it causes to the climate. Thank your local oil company for that propaganda.
