<H3>Here you go...</H3>
<H3>Soy vs Paraffin</H3>
SOY
<UL>
<LI>Soy wax is made from soybeans and vegetables, both renewable resources.
<LI>Soy wax burns much cleaner and purer as it is all natural, non-toxic, and non-hazardous.
<LI>This wax is biodegradable leading to reduced landfills.
<LI>Soy wax residue can be washed away with warm water and soap.
<LI>Purchasing soy products supports the soy farmers of America, which stimulates our economy and lessens dependence on international resources. </LI>[/list]
PARAFFIN
<UL>
<LI>Derived from petroleum, a limited resource
<LI>The burning of paraffin wax contributes to indoor air contamination by emitting petro-chemicals causing soot deposits and carcinogenic particulate matter.
<LI>This wax contains petroleum by-products and additives that inhibit biodegradability.
<LI>Paraffin wax residue is quite troublesome, often impossible, to remove.
<LI>Purchasing paraffin products not only supports our dependence on this crude oil but also supports an industry riddled with environmental faux pas.</LI>[/list]
