Cleaner Air
Natural Gas burns cleaner and more efficiently than either gasoline or propane and contributes less to air pollution. About 40% of all air pollution can be attributed to the automobiles on our roads in the form of carbon monoxide (CO), the oxides of nitrogen (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter (PM) and other harmful contaminants. Vehicles using Compressed Natural Gas achieve about a 90% reduction in CO emissions, 50% of NOx, 98% of VOCs and 60% of PM*. It is easy to see that using clean, safe, economical Natural Gas means cleaner air for all of us to breathe.
