Show Notes

New study uncovers benzene in European household gas supplies, posing health risks. Researchers found benzene in every gas sample tested across the UK, Netherlands, and Italy. UK gas carries thirty-seven times more benzene than North American supplies, with hotspots like London and Edinburgh at significantly higher levels. Leaky gas cookers affect around forty percent of kitchens, potentially impacting thousands in Edinburgh. Gas networks are upgrading pipes and using leak detection tech, but experts call for a re-evaluation of Europes natural gas dependence.
