The public are being misled by the stove industry's advertising. They are being told the stoves are 'clean burning' but this is impossible. A recent study has shown that emissions from new wood stoves are at least 16 times worse than the lab tests claim. Please help educate the public on why the emissions are so dangerous to infants, pregnant mothers and adults with lung, heart or immune deficiencies. There really is no good reason to burn wood (or coal) - the emissions are known to be carcinogenic to all ages with the very young & elderly being the most vulnerable. http://www.crc.govt.nz/publications/Reports/air-report-emissions-residential-wood-burning-appliances-nz-000805.pdf
