Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Natural gas reserves in the United States are abundant and expected to last many decades, even with increased demand. However, natural gas is not free of pollutants and emissions, and while it produces less pollution than gasoline, it is not as clean as some other alternative fuels such as electricity or hydrogen. Option A is incorrect because natural gas burns cleaner than gasoline, producing less carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide, and other pollutants. Option B is also incorrect because natural gas combustion does produce carbon dioxide, although at lower levels than gasoline. Option D is incorrect because natural gas consumption in the United States has been steadily increasing in recent years, not declining.
