Are We Keeping America Beautiful?

I just found a great little video on YouTube that looks and is silly, but it actually has some important information in it. For example, the main character says that every year, 1 million tons of aluminum are improperly disposed of, which apparently is enough to rebuild the total American commercial air fleet every 3 months! Wow. So I'm going to have to research this information and check to see if it's right, but if so, it looks like America isn't doing a very good job with their recycling.
