Question
Give a scientific reason.
Power generation plant based on natural gas is eco-friendly.
Solution
Power generation plant based on natural gas is eco-friendly because natural gas contains no sulphur. As a result, burning produces less pollution. Natural gas emits 50 to 60 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) in power plants than regular oil or coal-fired power plants. It also emits greenhouse gases into the atmosphere with a shorter life cycle. As a result, it is environmentally friendly.
