This document proposes a program called United We Can that would install aluminum can recycling kiosks in schools across the US. The kiosks would provide rewards to students for recycling cans and generate revenue from the recycled aluminum. This revenue would fund school nutrition programs, improving access to healthy meals for students while also increasing aluminum recycling rates and reducing landfill costs. The program aims to eventually have a kiosk in every US school to maximize the positive environmental, health, and educational impacts.Bands
