Turner's Orbit

Greetings from

Welcome, fellow Earth-nerd. You just entered the recycling stratosphere.

You scanned the code—which means you're curious, clever, and ready to see the big picture.

 

I’m Turner, and this is my orbit. From local scrap heaps to global impact, let’s explore how metals recycling keeps our planet spinning smoothly.

Mission Briefing: Why it Matters

Every time you recycle a can, a pipe, or a pile of old scrap, you're doing way more than cleaning up your garage. You're helping reduce mining, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and conserve energy worldwide.

​

Here’s what we’re up against—and how your choices shift the balance:

Mining New Metals
Deforestation, pollution, and massive energy use

Less Raw Extraction 
Cleaner water, safer habitats, and healthier ecosystems

Orbit Data Center: Global Impact by the Numbers

1 ton of recycled aluminum = Saving 14,000 kWh of energy & preventing 10 tons of COâ‚‚ emissions.

It also keeps bauxite (aluminum ore) in the ground where it belongs!

If everyone in the U.S. recycled just one more aluminum can a week, we’d save enough energy to power over 1.5 million homes a year.

Your can today, climate win tomorrow.

The Circular Economy is not a sci-fi term. 

 

It’s the real deal—and metals are MVPs. Because they don’t degrade, they can loop forever

Did you know metals never “go bad”?

 

That car part you recycled might become a bridge support in Japan.

​Recycling is a climate solution. Full stop.

 

It’s one of the easiest ways to reduce emissions—and you’re part of it!
