    Natural gas more benign than coal or oil
    It is commonly claimed that Natural gas use is better from a GreenHouse Gas perspective.
    Since oil, coal and gas all produce carbon dioxide when burnt, where is the scientific justification for this claim. My NET searches have been in vain.

    The CO2 problem is only one aspect of burning fossil energy sources.
    There are also other dangerous ingredients, like sulphur that produces various sulphur-oxides.
    These can be removed much easier and much higher in percentage from gas than from coal and oil. Take that into account!
