Los californianos negros y latinos son los más expuestos a los pozos de petróleo y gasMás de un millón de californianos viven cerca de pozos activos de petróleo o gas, lo cual los puede exponer a contaminantes relacionados con asma, los partos prematuros y otros problemas de salud.

The Gas Stove Wars are Far From OverPSE researcher Eric Lebel said they were interested in how much emissions came from the stove, so they had to be sure it wasn’t escaping the room or outside. They conducted the research in an enclosed space by tenting the kitchen (these were kitchens in real homes). That gave them the conclusion that families who don’t use range hoods or have poor ventilation can blow past these one-hour standards of nitrogen dioxide within a few minutes.

First NV gas plant in 15 years gets expedited approval, customers likely to get the billPeaker plants are also disproportionately located near or in low-income communities and communities of color, exposing families to air and water pollution, according to a recent analysis by Physicians, Scientists, and Engineers for Healthy Energy, a non-profit research institute.

Gas Stoves Pose Health Risks. Are Gas Furnaces and Other Appliances Safe to Use?Gas stoves have become an unlikely front line in the culture wars thanks to growing awareness of their contribution to health problems like childhood asthma, not to mention their links to climate change. But the other gas-fueled appliances found in many American homes — water heaters, furnaces, and clothes dryers, to name a few — have received far less attention, although they also pose risks to public health and the environment.

BGE’s proposed rate increase would be difficult burden for many, say customers, officials and advocatesEnergy bills eat up a large chunk of income for some Maryland residents, a study released Wednesday showed. About 400,000 households in the state and nearly 30% of Baltimore residents pay more than 6% of their income on energy bills, considered a high level, according to the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research and PSE Healthy Energy. And for 170,000 residents with incomes less than $26,500 for a family of four, energy costs accounted for about 20% of income, the study showed.

Over 18 percent of Maryland households are burdened by high energy bills: ReportAbout 400,000 Maryland households, and nearly 30 percent of Baltimore residents, pay more than six percent of their income on energy bills, according to a new report by researchers from the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research (IEER) and PSE Healthy Energy (PSE).

Report: State's biggest polluters disproportionately affecting disadvantagedWhile the state has set ambitious goals and has made strides to reduce emissions, its current policies don’t require all large air polluters to cut their greenhouse gases. Many of these facilities also release huge amounts of pollutants that are harmful to breathe in, according to a recent report compiled by PSE Healthy Energy and the University of New Mexico.

The scientific case against gas stovesGas-fired stoves are essentially “little gas-fired power plants in your home,” says Drew Michanowicz, a scientist at PSE Healthy Energy, a public health-focused nonprofit based in California. And since we spend about 90 percent of our time indoors, we can expose ourselves heavily.

These 5 Items will Continuously Emit Carcinogenic Gases, Many People do not know are still “raising killers” in the HouseResearch has found that indoor cooking gas contains toxic organic compounds that even include chemicals linked to disease K. Research from the Center for Climate, Health and Global Environment at Harvard (C – CHANGE) in collaboration with PSE Healthy Energy, Atmospheric and Environmental Research (AER), Gas Safety Inc., Boston University and the Home Energy Efficiency (HEET) group has collected Collected more than 200 acres of unburnt natural gas from 69 different kitchens and built pipelines around Greater Boston from December 2019 to May 2021.
