Alcoa Sets Goal To Raise N.A. UBC Recycling Rate

摘要

Alcoa reported that it has established a goal to raise the industry's used beverage can (UBC) recycling rate in North America from its current 52 percent rate to 75 percent by 2015."The aluminum industry must work together for common sustainability goals that transcend individual commercial objectives, and we must approach this with a sense of urgency. It's all about recapturing this pool of energy before it is lost to the landfill," said Greg Wittbecker, Alcoa's Director Corporate Metal Recycling Strategy, in a call-for-action presentation to aluminum industry leaders.
