BP has said that they are burning 30 million cubic feet of natural gas a day.
Burning natural gas contributes least to global warming compared to coal and oil. Natural gas produces fewer greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon dioxide and methane, per unit of energy generated.

Yes
By burning natural gas in a combustion engine, you get mechanical energy.
Natural gas is considered the cleanest burning petroleum product. When it is burned, it produces lower levels of greenhouse gas emissions and pollutants compared to other petroleum products like diesel or gasoline.
Yes, combustion of natural gas is a form of chemical change.
A natural gas burning plant, also known as a natural gas power plant, is a facility that generates electricity by burning natural gas as fuel. The combustion of natural gas produces heat, which is used to convert water into steam, driving a turbine connected to a generator. These plants are often favored for their lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to coal-fired plants and their ability to quickly adjust output to meet demand.
The equation for combustion efficiency of natural gas burning furnaces is typically calculated as: Efficiency = (Energy output / Energy input) x 100% where Energy output is the heat released by burning the natural gas, and Energy input is the total energy content of the natural gas fed into the furnace.
Burning fossil fuels such as coal or natural gas can increase the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
