Soda tabs are made from the exact same aluminum ore as the rest of the can, although some people say that they have higher aluminum content. Soda tabs are the most valuable part of the can and is the purest aluminum. Americans throw out enough aluminum every three months to rebuild the country`s entire commercial air fleet. Every aluminum can that is laid to rest in a land fill will take about 500 years to completely degrade. My brother recycles soda cans and when being assigned this assignment I began to snap off the soda tabs and thought about what I can make with them. I thought about making a bracelet; showing that something made out of aluminum, something from a can, can turn into jewelry.
