LOL. Your comment is spot on. How clueless is it to write about
pollution from fires when all this person appears to want to do is to
export the pollution caused by his/her heating into someone else's
backyard and to inflict it on the people who live where the
electricity plants are located.

Cheap wood stoves are dirty. The most efficient wood stoves are quite clean.
The kacheloven, properly constructed and used, will burn so hot that you can
safely burn softwood with no creosote buildup and no significant pollution. Not
many people will pay for them, though.
