Anything that has new or used oil in it that is thrown away. A good example would be engine oil! What happens is, that oil never dries up and will contaminate anything around it where ever it is for years if not for hundreds of years and maybe thousands of years to come. Absolutely not good for the environment.
To prevent this from happening. Any kind of oil should be recuperated and brought to a specialize place where they recycle it and use it again.
Today almost every city or town have at least one of those recycling places.
