  • what's the answer if you want some sort of real fire in your living room?

    Gas? And if the thought of burning a fossil fuel is abhorrent to you, then why is burning a fresh organic fuel that releases CO2 OK?

    A candle?

    But like others said, you probably don't need it at all. And if you have a wood burner you'd be advised to not use it for the sake of your own health.

    The BMW SUV example externalises the impact on lots of other people outside of the vehicle (hmm, except the driver's wallet for the fuel)... but the wood burner directly impacts those in the room who have to breathe in the product of combustion.

    But as gash as they are, at least an SUV has a load of practical benefits for the user.

    A log burner saves money for people with the money to fund the upfront cost. That's it.
