Environment Empty Aerosol Cans The amount of waste buildup will threaten human survival on Earth if its people do not begin to properly manage their waste. Recycling common used items, such as aerosol containers, facilitates a proper waste management system, reduces solid waste buildup, and most importantly, it protects nonrenewable resources used by the steel industry from depletion. Around the world, the households and industries of today use aerosol containers. People rely on aerosols for paint, deodorizers and cleaners, hairspray, adhesives, and even bug repellent. They are used on a daily basis because aerosol cans offer the most precise and efficient delivery of product to hard to reach places. The United Kingdom currently recycles just 7.5% of the 600 million aerosol cans that it produces each year. Clearly, people lack awareness of the ability of recycling centers to accommodate aerosol containers. However, the growing public concern over the disposal of solid waste has sparked the promotion of communities to collect empty aerosol containers. The aerosol and steel industry have teamed up to make recycling aerosol containers both efficient and accessible for the consumer and producers of aerosol products.
