With all the pollution in the world today, propane gives you an alternate fuel source without the high carbon emissions, one of the primary contributors to global warming.

Propane gives off less than half the greenhouse gas emissions that electricity does while its exhaust creates 60 percent to 70 percent fewer smog-producing hydrocarbons than gasoline. Propane is nontoxic and insoluble in water. Because it's released as a gas, it doesn't spill, pool, or leave a residue. That means propane is not harmful to soil or water in the unlikely event of a tank leak.
