I swill so much water that it is unreal. I go buy a one buck gallon jug of bottled water and then just keep filling it back up. Carry the sucker around with me until it disintegrates. Then toss it in the recycling bin.

Aluminum is a different story. Aluminum is made by electrolysis and it takes a huge amount of electricity to make the stuff. So recycle all of your metals big time. We don't need 99% of the stuff we have anyway. All we do is consume in this country.

The electricity and aluminum thing has a lot to do with where the aircraft companies located during WWII. There was a huge excess of hydro power up there at the time.
