Yes, I know it's not technically just methane, but methane is its primary constituent.
"Fossil gas" is also probably a suitable term, but I like "fossil methane" because it gets that spooky chemical name benefit.

Lol, landlords suck everywhere.
Ranges also reigned supreme in Europe 15 years ago.
It just takes time, but eventually induction will replace everything. In the meantime, cooking on gas isn't that bad.
In terms of government action, I think the best would be to just regulate rents. In most schemes, slightly higher rents are allowed for modernized rentals. But rents are just too high at the moment.
