Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:

Some gas stoves require electricity to continue operating due to electric safety sensors that shut the stove gas off if the flame goes out. They too would be useless in a power outage because the valves would not open. So it’s not just electric stoves that would be out of luck.
If you have room to store one, a used camp stove and gas cylinder are fine for basics. No need to buy a fancy new one. Or even a gas bbq grill.
Don't forget about the electric ventilation being out if theres a power outage. You don't want to cook with a gas stove indoors with that off.
Regulations in my country require that the ventilation doesn't rely on any device, it must be some hatch you can't close. I'm pretty sure it's the same elsewhere in the world, it's too dangerous otherwise.
I mean sure... but without the fan it's not going to work nearly as well.
It doesn't even work WITH the fan as we're now finding out it's still creating toxic air in homes.
You peoplr are nuts. You need everything, PPE's, Ventilation, a central AC unti, or you would just sit and wait to die, because nothing is "propper".
