Bringing a single aluminium can back into use, requires only 5% of the energy used to create it in the first place. It is estimated that 25% of household rubbish is recycled, the equivalent of taking 35 million cars off the road. In some high achieving countries like Austria and Germany the figure is more like 50%. This is the equivalent of 7 million cars. This adds up to a single fact - recycling is one of the single most effective things that every household can do to help guard against global warming.
