User:Ejhoekstra/Organic substances of natural origin
Industrially-produced organic substances or chemicals are generally considered originating from anthropogenic sources only. However, many of them are also produced in natural processes. Halogenated organic substances of natural origin are listed on User:Ejhoekstra/List of natural halogenated substances.
