When you think about the North Pole, visions of snow-covered rooftops, twinkling lights, and Santa’s workshop come to mind. But have you ever wondered how Santa stays warm in such chilly conditions? Here’s a hint: it might involve propane!
While we can’t confirm what fuels the magic at the North Pole, propane’s history and winter-ready benefits make it a solid contender for keeping Santa and his crew cozy. Let’s dive into some fun holiday-inspired propane facts—and learn a bit about its fascinating history along the way.
A Brief History of Propane - Santa’s Secret Weapon?
Propane’s journey began in 1910 when chemist Dr. Walter Snelling discovered this awesome fuel.
