Oil

As we start to learn about how oil impacted Texas it is important to know the uses of oil both in the past and today.

1) Please find and list ONE use of oil (or a byproduct of oil) for your blog post this week.  
2) As usual, you will need to cite your online source for your blog to receive full credit.  
3) The type of oil must originate from the ground.  


***Please only list one use, as these are limited.  

*********Also, if you post an example that has already been used, you will not receive credit for the blog this week.  You will need to check previous posts before posting yourself.
