Even if you don’t use chemical fertilizers or pesticides in your yard, you probably still use oil and natural gas products. When you water your garden with a hose, set out your recycling bin or pop on a pair of safety goggles to trim the hedge, you’re using petroleum products.

From your head to your toes, in rain, snow or sunshine, you could be wearing oil and gas. Fabrics and materials created from petroleum can keep you dry and warm, or when we’re talking sunglasses, very cool!

There’s more than gasoline in your vehicle! From the tires, mud flaps and windshield wipers outside, to the carpets, seat covers and steering wheel inside, to the oil filter, battery case and fan belt under the hood, your car is an oil and gas machine. Plus we drive on asphalt, steer clear of safety cones and slow down for temporary speed bumps, all made with oil and natural gas.
