Here are some facts about saving aluminum that may be helpful and encouraging

Aluminum is the most recyclable of all materials. It can be recycled forever and can be melted down and reformed without losing any quality. Recycling aluminum not only saves energy but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

The aluminum cans you recycle today can be made into a new can, filled and added back on the shelf in six weeks.

Suggestion for this week: switch to personal hygiene products that come in aluminum rather than plastic bottles. Alpine Provisions is one company that creates sustainably-sourced shampoos, conditioners and deodorants packaged in infinitely recyclable aluminum bottles.
