Rubbing alcohol, typically isopropyl alcohol or ethanol, is primarily derived from petroleum, which is a non-renewable resource. However, ethanol can also be produced from renewable sources such as corn or sugarcane through fermentation. Therefore, while some forms of rubbing alcohol are made from non-renewable resources, others can be derived from renewable materials. The specific source depends on the production method used.
