Natural gas is a versatile fossil fuel that plays a significant role in power generation, residential heating, industrial processes, and transportation. It primarily consists of methane, along with small amounts of other hydrocarbons, and is extracted from underground reservoirs through drilling techniques. As a relatively clean-burning fuel compared to coal and oil, natural gas emits fewer pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and particulate matter when combusted, making it a preferred choice for electricity generation in many regions. Additionally, advancements in extraction technologies, such as hydraulic fracturing (fracking), have significantly expanded natural gas reserves, further solidifying its position as a key component of the global energy mix. However, concerns regarding methane leakage during extraction and transportation, as well as its contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, highlight the need for continued efforts to mitigate environmental impacts associated with natural gas usage.
