Propane and the Environment

Fewer air pollutants. Lower emissions of the greenhouse gasses that are often blamed for climate change. Less carbon content.

Those are just some of the environmental advantages that propane has over conventional energy supplies in virtually every application, from heating and transportation to cooking, power generation, and 1,000 more uses. And, unlike most alternative energy sources, propane is not only clean-burning and safe, it is also widely available and highly efficient.

Many proposals for fighting climate change and reducing the environmental impact of energy use will have to wait for new technologies to be perfected. However, propane produced right here in Canada can make major and immediate contributions right now, using today’s technology. For virtually every industry and hundreds of home uses, there are opportunities to switch to domestically produced, clean-burning and efficient propane. Choosing propane over other fuels helps to combat climate change, is a better alternative for the environment, and is healthier for us all.

So, we at the Propane Gas Association of Canada are proud to provide information about the environmental benefits of propane gas. That’s why we’ve designed this part of our website to answer environmental questions Canadians may have about the production and use of our products.
