A fireplace in your home might be a nice addition to the room and might seem like a more ‘natural’ way to heat up your home than an air-conditioner, but in fact, fireplaces are very polluting and extremely harmful to the environment. Fireplaces emit carbon dioxide to the outside, but it is also very harmful inside the house, emitting cancerous materials, and might be 5 times more dangerous than the outside emission.
