What is the impact of recycling just ONE aluminum can? Novelis is proud to present Life of a Can, an aluminum recycling education program that allows elementary and middle school students to explore this question and many more! Students will be empowered to make a positive difference in their communities as they explore the never-ending lifecycle of a recycled aluminum can. Whether you are a student, teacher, Novelis colleague, or someone who wishes to champion recycling in your community, you will find everything you need to know about the benefits of aluminum and why it’s so important to recycle it through Life of a Can! Each one of us can be defenders of the planet, just like former National Hockey League defenseman Andrew Ference, who highlights the power of recycling in our featured video, What’s One Can. After viewing the video, you CAN explore how recycling saves energy, investigate your impact on the environment, and examine the properties and structures of aluminum.
