OK, here's the real scoop. My IQ is over 140 and I have many years experience as an outdoorsman AND a scientist, but don't just believe me, think about what I say!

Do you know what an incinerator is? It burns

garbage, at HIGH temperature. IF you have a modern airtight woodstove, AND it's up to full temperature,

YES!! you can burn magazines. Mix them in with good firewood. They do produce more ash to clean out later, but that is not a problem. If you don't have a modern airtight woodstove, don't try, mags don't burn very well, except for crumpling every page and just using to start a fire.

As for open fire pits, once again, mags don't burn very well, except for crumpling every page and just using to start a fire. Your lungs operate best on clean air,

inhaling any kind of smoke is not a good thing.

Burning magazines in open fire pits can release toxins into the air, posing health risks to those nearby. The inks and chemicals used in printing can produce harmful fumes when burned, contributing to air pollution. It is not recommended to burn magazines in open fire pits for this reason.

Is it safe to burn laurel logs on an indoor open fire?

No. Laurel contains cyanide compounds which are toxic. These toxins remain in the smoke from the wood. It isn't illegal to sell it; it is often sold as firewood. Experts advise aging it at least 2 years to stabilize the tar in the wood, and to burn it in a closed, vented fireplace. The indoor open fire seems a poor idea.
