- With the many stove options available today, it's vital to consider how green these choices are. The most common cooktops are the cheaper options: gas and electric.
Gas stoves heat quickly and are a good choice for power outages. However, these need gas lines and tanks, which can leak and cause destructive malfunctions. On the other hand, electric stoves are better for heat regulation, but it is harder to fire up while using a lot of energy that can yank up bills.
Gas stoves can release pollutants that are harmful to humans and the environment. Although electricity comes from fossil fuels, it can also come from more sustainable energy sources like solar and wind.
