Wood smoke is toxic
Wood smoke can be forty times more toxic than tobacco smoke. Each year almost two million people die worldwide. Some of these people would not have died at this point in their lives if wood smoke had not added to their health problems.
I believe as responsable citizens by not burning wood, life would be safer for the children, neighbourhoods and the environment.
Replacing clean air with smelly smoke is not worth it because of the smoke emission which lowers neighbourhood health standard and consequently property value.
This is a hazard and nuisance that neighbourhoods can not afford, take it from some one who lives next door to an exhaust pipe.
