It doesn’t make much sense to me, but an item at forbes.com says that the EPA has issued regulations imposing a nationwide ban on wood-burning stoves that produce more than 12 micrograms of particulate emission per cubic meter of air. That might make sense in Maricopa County, for example, but does it make sense in rural Maine or Alaska, where there are probably a significant number of households that depend on wood-burning stoves for heat?

<i>"the change will impose a maximum 12 microgram limit..."</i> Tom, you may be right about the specific standard. I am not going to dig through a 326 page PDF document to verify your claim. My point still stands: why should families heating their homes in rural Alaska be subject to the same air pollution standard as people burning wood for primarily aesthetic purposes in urban Arizona?
