Simply cannot say this enough: do not run a portable generator in your home, do not try to heat your home with a charcoal grill, do not try to heat your home with a stove. All of those products can produce deadly levels of carbon monoxide that can kill within minutes.
As a power out continues people get desperate. They stop thinking clearly and take risks that can have deadly consequences. We know it seems simple, but a quick reminder about carbon monoxide to a friend or family member who is experiencing the rolling blackouts could save lives.
Also, when a crisis is happening, and it doesn't affect you personally, your reaction should be self-reflection, not shaming. A desire to improve the quality of safety in your own life, not gawk at the lack of safety in someone else's.

We're seeing more media reports of carbon monoxide poisoning incidents in Texas. If you know someone there who doesn't have power, check on them to make sure they are not using a portable generator indoors and that they have working carbon monoxide alarms in their home.
You can't see or smell carbon monoxide (CO) and it can kill a family within minutes. If you're running a portable generator, it must be outdoors and at least 20ft away from your home. One portable generator can literally produce the same amount of CO as hundreds of cars.
Besides portable generators, we're seeing reports of people using charcoal grills and home stoves to stay warm. Both of these products can produce deadly levels of carbon monoxide. Stoves should NEVER be used to heat a home. Charcoal grills should NEVER be used indoors.
