I have been around a lot of LP powered engines and they are extremely clean.
The issues with those you were around must have been a maintenance issue or lack of proper air filtering.

Shifting to wind and solar and adding nuclear power plants is needed, but focus on CONSERVATION should be at the forefront. Building homes and other buildings that aren't super-insulated is folly.
