Many medications and food products are derived from fossil fuels, either directly or indirectly. Here are some examples: Medications Derived from Fossil Fuels: 1. *Aspirin*: Derived from petroleum-based ingredients. 2. *Ibuprofen*: Produced using petroleum-based chemicals. 3. *Antibiotics*: Some antibiotics, like penicillin, are produced using petroleum-based ingredients. 4. *Vitamins*: Some vitamins, like Vitamin C, are produced using petroleum-based chemicals. 5. *Hormones*: Some hormones, like insulin, are produced using petroleum-based ingredients. 6. *Antihistamines*: Some antihistamines, like diphenhydramine, are produced using petroleum-based chemicals. 7. *Pain relievers*: Some pain relievers, like acetaminophen, are produced using petroleum-based ingredients. 8. *Antidepressants*: Some antidepressants, like fluoxetine, are produced using petroleum-based chemicals. Food Products Derived from Fossil Fuels: 1. *Food packaging*: Many food packaging materials, like plastic wrap and containers, are made from petroleum-based plastics. 2. *Pesticides*: Many pesticides used in agriculture are derived from fossil fuels. 3. *Fertilizers*: Some fertilizers, like ammonium nitrate, are produced using fossil fuels. 4. *Food additives*: Some food additives, like artificial sweeteners and flavor enhancers, are derived from fossil fuels. 5. *Processed foods*: Many processed foods, like frozen meals and snacks, contain ingredients derived from fossil fuels. 6. *Bottled water*: Bottled water is often packaged in petroleum-based plastics. 7. *Canned goods*: Canned goods are often packaged in tin cans coated with petroleum-based linings. 8. *Baking products*: Some baking products, like baking powder and baking soda, are produced using fossil fuels. Statistics: - According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), over 90% of all pesticides used in the United States are derived from fossil fuels. - The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that over 75% of all medications used worldwide are derived from fossil fuels. - The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations estimates that over 50% of all food packaging materials used worldwide are derived from fossil fuels. ®RSA-Cannabis™ is the Solution to Fossils. 🇺🇲🇿🇦🌱 www.rsacannabis.co.za
