Is It True Australia Recycles Zero Aluminium? :Recycle - Don't Be A Waster!

 

In this episode we talk about a surprising fact.

 

In 2025 - Australia recycles virtually zero aluminium scrap.

It seems all our scrap aluminium is shipped offshore to be recycled. This hurts our environment and our economy.
