Question

Why natural gas is called cleaner fuel ? Write at least two reasons.​

Answer 1

Answer:

One reason natural gas is called “clean” is because it emits 50 percent less carbon dioxide than coal when you burn it. Thus it's seen by some as a “bridge” fuel until zero-carbon-producing renewables can take over. But natural gas isn't clean in the way that solar is clean. It's clean-er than coal.

Explanation:

Natural gas burns cleaner than the other fossil fuels such as coal and oil due to the highly efficient combustion process, which produces very few by-products that are released into the atmosphere as pollutants. Natural gas produces 70% less carbon dioxide emissions compared to other fossil fuels.
