Budget Propane Supplies Eco-Friendly Energy

Propane is the Eco-Friendly Gas for those who care about the environment, and choosing the right fuel source for one’s home, business, or vehicle. In addition to being cost-efficient, propane is the most environmentally friendly of all natural gas and petroleum-based heating options. Here are a few reasons why you are doing your part to keep the planet clean when you choose propane.

• Greenhouse Emissions: Propane has low carbon content and emits less greenhouse gases (GHG) when burned than gasoline, kerosene, diesel, ethanol, and coal do. According to the Canadian Propane Association, propane heaters even produce less GHG emissions than electric water heaters. Also, unlike the natural gas methane, propane does not release carbon dioxide or act as a GHG of any kind when released into the air.
• Propane Exhaust: If you are considering owning a propane-fueled vehicle, know that these produce up to 26% less GHG than their gasoline-powered counterparts. If inhaled, propane vapours are non-toxic. The Canadian Propane Association also reports that propane is Canada’s most popular alternative fuel for transportation applications, so keeping a propane supply handy would be the convenient and green thing to do.
• Pollution and Criteria Air Contaminants: Propane produces less of the particles that pollute the environment than gasoline and diesel. These pollutants, known as Criteria Air Contaminants (CAC), can cause haze, acid rain, ground-level ozone, and other environmental problems. Propane also will not contaminate water supplies or the soil; though propane is stored in liquid form, it will not pool if released, but rather become a harmless vapour that rapidly dissipates. As a propane user, you help keep emissions low and the ecosystem healthy.
