Many of us have been recycling aluminum soft drink cans for several years. Now Purina, maker of Fancy Feast and Friskies cat food, is campaigning to encourage the recycling of aluminum cat food cans. There are two ways you can help:

1. Recycle all Aluminum Cans
   Cat food cans and other aluminum food cans - ecology is ecumenical. Purina points out that recycling one 3 ounce aluminum can generates enough energy to power one 60 watt lightbulb for two hours.
2. Take the Purina Pledge
   For each pledge, Purina will donate $1 (up to $100,000) to Keep America Beautiful.

I took the pledge and I encourage my readers to do so also. It only takes a few minutes to rinse out used aluminum cans and save them in a (recycled) plastic bag. Check out the web site of Marc Lallanilla, About.com Guide to Green Living, for more ideas on keeping our planet green.
