Natural Gas
Natural gas is a fossil fuel made primarily of methane, a compound of carbon and hydrogen. It forms underground over millions of years from the remains of plants and animals. It is a crucial energy source used for heating, electricity generation, and as fuel for vehicles. Natural gas burns cleaner than other fossil fuels like coal and oil, producing fewer harmful emissions. It can be transported as a gas through pipelines or as liquefied natural gas (LNG) for shipping. As the world seeks cleaner energy options, natural gas plays an important role in the transition to more sustainable energy systems.
