So does consuming that steak.

IDK about the steak but I can tell you that the amounts of CO2 produced by eating and farting and the amount produced by using a gas stove are nowhere near one another. I know because I have a CO2 meter in my house.

Normal outdoor levels around here are in the mid 300-low 400 ppm range.

Inside our house with doors and windows closed and furnace on, no matter how much anyone farts levels don't go above about 700 ppm.

Using one gas burner on the stove for about 1/2 hour, they increase to 1200 ppm+.

Once you notice it, you can't un-notice it. And by "notice" I mean "feel"--1200 ppm is more CO2 than optimal. I actually love cooking with a gas stove and fortunately we have strong cross-ventilation through the kitchen, but there's no way I would put one in as a new appliance having had this experience.
