The entire U.S. commercial airline fleet could be rebuilt every three months from discarded, non-recycled aluminum.
many Americans recycle glass, plastic and cardboard, but a lot of aluminum gets carelessly thrown away.
Making new cans out of old ones saves a lot of energy. According to the Windstar Institure in C>, a manufacturing company could make 20 recycled aluminum cans by using the same amount of energy necessary to make one new aluminum can from bauxite ore. The Reynolds metal Co. adds that recycling just one can saves enough energy to poer a TV for three hours.
Please recycle aluminum. In California the going rate per pound for recycling aluminum cans is $2.00. Every trashbag filled with uncrushed cans can bring $10. In Texas, not so much.
In California we have big recycling bins/cans like our regular trash cans. People make a living rummaging thru the recycling bins along our streets and stealing the aluminum, plastic and cardboard. They pull shopping carts that they have stolen from shopping centers and wheel them around collecting. Not an honest living but better than violent of drug related occupations.
PLEASE RECYCLE!
