Climate Change

Scientists, environmentalists, corporate leaders, politicians, and citizens agree than pollutants in our atmosphere appear to be contributing to "Global Warming". It is believed this can make temperatures rise or fall and cause severe weather disturbances - affecting the growth of our crops, population of sea life and other food sources. If this happens, human existence will not be the same as we know it today.

The big culprit is carbon dioxide. As more carbon dioxide is produced and enters our atmosphere, the crisis of the Global Warming becomes closer.

Using Sparling's Propane instead of coal, oil, gasoline or electricity or wood in industry and the home can greatly reduce this severe environmental threat.

For example:

• Propane exhaust creates 60-70% less smog
• Converting gasoline or diesel powered cars and trucks to propane would reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 15 percent per kilometre.
• Compared to gasoline, propane yields about 20% less nitrous oxide and as much as 60% less carbon monoxide (World LP Gas Commission01-03, California Energy Commission 01-03).
• Propane cuts emissions of toxins and carcinogens by up to 96% (SW Research Institute).
• A clean-burning propane fireplace emits 40 times fewer emissions than wood-burning fireplaces (NPGA 10-06)

Sparling's Propane is Clean. And Efficient.

Propane has long been recognized as "green" energy. By using this exceptional energy, homeowners can help cut emissions and help protect the environment.

• Propane is an approved alternative fuel listed in both the Clean Air Act and the National Energy Policy Act.
• Propane is non-toxic and insoluble in water. Because it is released as a gas, it doesn't spill, pool, or leave a residue.

Sparling's Propane is Low in Other Pollutants.

Other pollutants like carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide and chlorofluorocarbons are also dangerous chemicals that can contaminate the clear air as we breathe.

The fact is, propane-fueled engines burn so clean and are so low in emissions, they are safe to power forklifts, ice machines and other industrial machines indoors.

Sparling's Propane is Clean Energy. For Living.

Looking forward to our future - and our children's future - is difficult to do during the day-to-day focus of our lives. But we can all make a difference without drastically altering our lifestyles by making the change to Sparling's Propane in our homes, our work, our fleets and our communities.

And that's the Clean Truth™.
