Are major oil spills in ocean environments responsible for the bulk of environmental contamination?

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), roughly 706 million gallons of petroleum are released into the ocean each year. Many believe that the bulk of this is caused by major catastrophic oil spills. However, the facts demonstrate that small spills or minor leaks add up significantly over time. In reality, a 2010 study estimated that between 10 and 16 million gallons of these spills are caused by poor maintenance practices or regular leaks and spills. This means that those companies who aim to be more environmentally responsible will need to evaluate the full range of their equipment, maintenance processes and product use to make more sustainable choices.

What are some of the public relations benefits that customers have benefitted from when using readily biodegradable FUTERRA and EnviroLogic® fluids?

For example, work truck fleets that are promoting CNG can also add truck body decals to promote use of EnviroLogic fluids. Many companies and cities have generated press releases and shared the news on local and national levels. When a spill occurs that could be potentially hazardous, use of readily biodegradable fluid mitigates a potentially negative event.
