Century Aluminum is teaming up with Emirates Global Aluminium to build a massive smelter in Oklahoma. Why does this matter? Most of our aluminum comes from overseas, so this could mean more local jobs and maybe—just maybe—better prices on everything from cars to kitchen wrap.

Christina Davis+FollowChina’s Scrap Game: Europe’s Can CrisisHere’s a wild one for your next coffee break: Europe’s aluminum recyclers are running low on scrap because China is buying it up—at prices locals can’t match. Now, some European plants are shutting down, while China ships the finished cans right back to Europe for a premium. The lesson? Even your soda can’s journey is a global tug-of-war, and it could mean higher prices for all of us. Watch this space if you care about recycling or your wallet! #Business #aluminum #recycling00Share
