According to World Health Organization (WHO),
seven cities in India are positioned among the most polluted cities
in the world. In these circumstances, the need of the hour, among
other solutions, is to switch to a cleaner and more sustainable
fossil fuel, for instance, liquefied natural gas
(LNG). The combustion of natural gas does not emit
soot, dust or fumes, and thus it makes it one of the cleanest
fossil fuels with high energy to carbon ratio.
Apart from being sustainable, LNG is also safe to use, it does
not burn in its liquid state and rapidly vaporises when it comes
into contact with air. This makes chances of it catching fire
highly improbable. It is easy to transport large quantities of LNG
because it takes a fraction of space compared to natural gas.
