Title

Heating Alternatives to Natural Gas by Hermann Geppert

 

Body

Hermann Geppert, ESB Member, will present an overview of Heating Alternatives to Natural Gas. Burning fossil fuels such as coal or natural gas produces carbon dioxide emissions and is considered to be a pollutant. Methane gas emissions resulting from oil and natural gas wells, storage tanks, pipelines and processing plants, leak into the atmosphere, further trapping the sun’s heat and leading to climate change.
