Fossil fuel use for cooking is a non-problem as far as climate change goes. The amount used for that purpose is a rounding error in the global carbon emissions. We can absolutely keep cooking with fossil fuels if we manage to phase out their use for heating, electricity generation, and transportation.
They absolutely do screw indoor air quality though, which is why I plan on installing a gas wok burner in my outdoor kitchen once I can afford to.
FYI - Cooking indoors on electric power sources also screws indoor air quality anytime any fats or organic matter reaches its smoke point or burns. In fact, relative to the food, the methane heat source isn’t as big a factor.
Sorry, but air-quality damage from gas cooking & air-quality damage from burning cooking-oil have nothing to do with each-other.
Both create harmful air.
Cooking with electric stove ( induction seems to be the cheapest, next to microwave, in terms of energy ) removes the air-quality harm done by gas.
Burning cooking-oil harms air-quality no matter what heating-technology was used to produce the mistake.
