Wood Smoke Stories

Smoke ruining life in Novato, California

My life is ruined due to the few neighbors that use their fireplaces and burn wood all day. We are between two of the houses and smell the smoke inside our home. I now suffer with headaches and am unable to breathe when these two neighbors burn. I can’t enjoy my backyard or front because of the smell and how it affects my lungs.

I can only hope that one day our AIR quality is a priority to the wood burning that needs to be banned! Imagine having asthma or other ailments that the elders deal with while these people pollute the air that ALL of us need to survive. It’s time to fix this problem and get rid of burning!
