Conclusions
Natural Gas is already contributing to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.Further replacement of coal and oil should be targeted.
Natural Gas has a huge saving potential in the transport sector.
Gas fired power production is vital to secure implementation of reneawable power production.
Climate mitigation
And in order to preserve the polar bear and the penguins, we also need to preserve the ice…
