Really? Does this number account for aluminium foil too? In France it's long been said that this should be thrown with the non-recyclable. Is France an outlier

Really? Does this number account for aluminium foil too? In France it's long been said that this should be thrown with the non-recyclable. Is France an outlier in this regard? Does that mean aluminium foil is a negligible amount?
- hanche 6y agoMy guess is that aluminium foil is indeed negligible in the big picture. But of course, I don't really know how accurate the original statistic is, either, nor do I know the distribution of aluminium for different uses. I imagine a lot of the metal is to be found in aircraft, which are of course pretty long-lived objects.
