A call for a ban on outdoor heaters has been backed by the European Parliament.
MEPs voted to endorse a report that says a timetable should be set to phase out patio heaters, as well as standby modes on televisions.
Report author Fiona Hall - a British MEP - says significant steps have to be taken to cut CO2 emissions, and a ban should at least be considered.
But experts disagree about the impact outdoor heaters have on the environment compared with other appliances.
