Very few. Usually aluminum cans are used before being discarded. For example, they are filled with softdrink, then sold, and then discarded. So technically, not many aluminum cans are actually 'wasted' each year because they are 'used' in the first place.
The average person in the UK uses around 160 aluminum cans per year.
The average person uses about 1,500 metal cans per year, which adds up to around 80,000 cans in a lifetime. This number can vary based on individual consumption habits and recycling practices.
The number of soda cans used in a day can vary depending on factors like population size, consumption habits, and availability of alternative beverages. On average, a single individual might consume one to two soda cans a day.
The amount of Coke consumed can vary greatly among teenagers. On average, a teenager may consume 1-2 cans of Coke per week, totaling approximately 4-8 cans per month. However, some teenagers may consume more or less depending on their individual preferences and habits.
anywhere where you could throw away aluminum cans
gotcha
It takes less than an hour to turn recycled aluminum cans into great thick rolls of aluminum. It takes many days to mine the bauxite, refine it, transport it, smelt it and turn it into great thick rolls of aluminum. So don't throw away those cans!
90,000 cans are thrown away every minute by Americans ourselves.Sad, huh?
More aluminum cans!!!
No aluminum cans are not compounds. Aluminum cans are made of aluminum which is an element and is very metallic.

So That People will not litter and throw there trash away
Old style steel ("tin") cans were, but modern aluminum cans, no. Steel eventually rusts away, but the oxides of aluminum are more durable than aluminum itself (in fact, they're used as abrasives, to wear away other stuff). On the other hand, recycling aluminum can is twenty times as efficient as extracting aluminum from bauxite ore.

you could throw it away or you could save them and take them to a place where they crush the cans and re use them and u get money
It is estimated that over 100 billion aluminum cans are thrown away each year worldwide. These cans can take hundreds of years to decompose in landfills, making recycling them an important environmental initiative. Recycling aluminum cans also saves energy and reduces the demand for raw materials.
