- TaylorAlexander 7y agoWell aluminum does take a whole lot of energy to manufacture, so if it doesn’t all get recycled there would likely be a lot of waste there.
- TheSpiceIsLife 7y agoHeaps of energy. Here in Tasmania the aluminium refinery consumes something like 56% of the states electricity. This site https://www.aluminum.org/industries/production/recycling https://www.aluminum.org/industries/production/recycling claims that 75% of all aluminium is recycled and that over 70% of all aluminium ever produced is still in use.
