    Yah, that’s not how they are recycled. That gets burned off by the temps required to melt the aluminum.

        It’s not. It’s a thin plastic film. One that doesn’t get into the environment at nearly the rate, since the aluminum is actually worth recycling.

      I, nor the poster you replied to, never mentioned recycling. Your starting to put things into the discussion that was never there.
