installing any kind of wood burning thing nowadays is just silly.
Yes and no. It is kinda carbon neutral, unlike burning gas (or using the electricity generated from fossil fuels). Modern DEFRA stoves are pretty clean and efficient. But I get that nobody really needs one in their home, in a town or city, anyway.

relatively, yes but overall still pretty bad for air quality.
the study demonstrates that people inside homes with a residential stove are at risk of exposure to high intensities of PM2.5 and PM1 within a short period of time through normal use.

As much as I liked the open fireplace our family had and used once a year, installing any kind of wood burning thing nowadays is just silly.
Unless you have your own woodland and no close neighbours if course.
