Gas appliances amount to 27% of Berkeley's greenhouse gas emissions. That's significant. It should be easy to lower that by attrition, over the coming years. Gas appliances are a significant contributor to childhood asthma rates, which should also drop over time only by avoiding gas. And, again, the future risk of earthquake-caused gas fires will be diminished as new structures no longer require gas lines that often rupture and burn in temblors.
