Does LPG contribute to climate change for good and healthy cooking?

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a clean-burning portable fuel and is now mainly produced by natural gas production and oil refining.

The World Health Organization (WHO) also recognizes LPG as a clean kitchen solution for more than half of the 2.8 billion people who still need access to clean technology and fuels for cooking. Clean fuel is well suited to tackling the Household Air Pollution (PAH) challenge.

The use of LPG can protect forests from being exploited for the production and use of charcoal and firewood (sold mainly in urban and peri-urban markets), thus helping to preserve the environment and capture CO2 Inefficient solid fuel stoves only release very small amounts of short-lived climate pollutants (e.g. soot and methane) contribute to providing up to 30% of the air-conditioning solutions required by 2030.
