Give the options for reducing green house gases by use of fuels better than fossil fuels.
Answer
The following fuels can be used which are better than fossil fuels as they release less green house gases:
- Liquefied Petroleum Gas [L.P.G.] - contains mostly propane [C3H8]
- Liquefied Natural Gas [L.N.G.] - contains mostly methane [CH4]
- Compressed Natural Gas [C.N.G.] - similar to L.P.G. but is not liquefied.
