Homes and businesses are a key part of the City’s sustainable future, for both reducing emissions and improving health. Energy use in buildings is responsible for 35% of the City’s emissions, mostly from natural gas used for heating, hot water, and cooking. Additionally, many natural gas appliances, especially gas stoves, leak methane gas which can be harmful to health and increases the likelihood of childhood asthma by more than 40%.
Fortunately, there are great alternatives to natural gas appliances, which reduce emissions and improve air quality in the home and community. Follow the links below for more information on resources and funding for appliance upgrades, home repairs, and ways to save on your bill!
