You finish your canned drink and get ready to throw it out. a garbage can is right nearby, but the recycling bin is a few more steps. should you bother to recycle aluminum cans? does it really make a difference? remember that most electrical energy in the u.s. is generated from fuels that contribute to global climate change. so, when you recycle an aluminum can, about how much energy is saved compared to the amount needed to make a new can from scratch?

It is easy to toss an empty beverage in the garbage can but the benefits are worth the extra effort. In 2007 alone, the US recycled enough aluminum cans to conserve 15 million barrels of crude oil. Not only are you conserving energy, you are aiding in the shift away from dependance on unrewable energy sources, and if the recycle bin is a few steps further away you are getting a tad more exercise.
