OT(ish) Eco fluff from Guardian about wood burning stoves
Not seen the article, suspect its only been published to fill space as there
seems to be no news except covid and we are all pig sick of that.

No hard facts, and only a passing mention that hints that the worst
polluters are open fires.
Nothing about solid fuel central heating which generally uses anthracite
beans.
Nothing about (for example) garden bonfires.
Previous articles have let slip that the issues are often about running
wood burners with the fire doors open, and that they are not such a
problem with the doors closed.
Our wood burner is for pleasure and also as a backup heat source. Cooking
at a pinch.
The electricity here is pretty reliable, but I still recall a couple of
houses back when we were the only house able to cook because of our solid
fuel Rayburn when the power went out for an extended period. So having an
alternative is reassuring.
Anyway, Happy New Year.
