From small cans to enormous airplanes, aluminum is in all sorts of items and equipment. Aluminum has many unique and useful properties, making it a popular material for many industries. Learn more about this metal’s properties with these interesting facts about working with aluminum.
Aluminum Is Flexible
Aluminum is flexible, so it’s easy to bend and mold into different shapes. Since aluminum is such a flexible material, manufacturers can use it for a wide variety of items, from bicycles to soda cans. Whenever manufacturers need a metal that’s both lightweight and ductile, aluminum is their go-to material.
Aluminum Reflects Light
One of aluminum’s undervalued properties is its reflectivity. Aluminum can reflect not only light but also heat. This property makes aluminum great for emergency blankets, mirrors, and telescopes. Also, since aluminum can reflect heat inside, it can keep it out of something. Because aluminum can reflect heat away from itself, businesses often use it for wrapping items and preserving food.
Aluminum Resists Corrosion
In humid environments, businesses need materials that can withstand corrosion. Aluminum has a high corrosion resistance, which makes it useful for marine applications. In fact, corrosion resistance is only one of the benefits of aluminum in naval ship structures. Many other advantages that aluminum provides for the marine industry exist, but corrosion resistance is certainly one of the most important benefits.
Aluminum Is Recyclable
Did you know that aluminum is recyclable? One of the interesting facts about working with aluminum is that you can melt it down and reuse it over and over again. Because aluminum is sustainable and doesn’t produce waste, it’s also an environmentally friendly option for businesses to use for various applications. Additionally, it’s cost effective since you purchase it once and can reuse it or sell it after it serves its purpose. Therefore, it’s ideal for many operations.

United Nations Video: Zero Waste, Myanmar, Security Council & other topics - Daily Press Briefing (30 March 2023)
Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General.
Highlights:
-Zero Waste
- Myanmar
- Security Council
- Mozambique/Humanitarian
- South Sudan
- Türkiye/Syria
- Vanuatu
- Lebanon/Israel
- Western Sahara
- Migrant Children
- Financial Contributions
- Noon Briefing Guest Tomorrow
ZERO WASTE
Today is the first-ever International Day of Zero Waste. The Secretary-General said at a high-level meeting of the General Assembly this morning – as part of the events to mark the Day - that humanity is treating our planet like a garbage dump. He warned that by 2050, municipal solid waste will double to 4 billion tonnes each year. He called on everyone to work as one to build a circular, zero-waste future.
Mr. Guterres underscored that Sustainable Development Goal 12 reminds us of the imperative to ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns by 2030, and that the General Assembly Resolution on Zero Waste Initiatives demonstrates that the political will is there.
He called on countries to take inspiration from the examples like Türkiye’s Zero Waste project, spearheaded by the First Lady of Türkiye, Emine Erdoğan.
The Secretary-General also announced that he is establishing an Advisory Board of Eminent Persons on Zero Waste. The Board will share success stories of national and local zero-waste initiatives.
In response to questions about the meeting between the Secretary-General and the First Lady of Türkiye, Emine Erdoğan, the Spokesman said they discussed the Zero Waste project.
Mr. Guterres thanked the First Lady for agreeing to chair the Advisory Board of Eminent Persons on Zero Waste – and that will be along with José Manuel Moller, CEO and Founder of Algramo, as vice-chair.
Algramo, for those of you who don’t know, is a Chilean-based startup that aims to reduce plastic waste, by enabling people to refill household product containers.
MYANMAR
In a statement released earlier today, the Secretary-General noted his deep concern by reports that the Union Election Commission, appointed by the military in Myanmar, has dissolved 40 opposition parties, including the National League for Democracy (NLD), led by State Counsellor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. Any attempts to undermine democratic institutions and processes will only deepen the crisis and delay the return to a fully democratic and inclusive Myanmar.
The Secretary-General renews his call on neighbouring countries and other Member States to urge the military leadership to adhere to inclusive political processes.
He reiterates his call for the immediate release of all arbitrarily detained prisoners, including President Win Myint and Daw Aung San Suu Kyi.
SECURITY COUNCIL
This morning, the Security Council held an open debate on Peace and Security in Africa, focusing on the impact of development policies in the implementation of the Silencing the Guns initiative.
Briefing the Council members was Cristina Duarte, the Under-Secretary-General and Special Adviser on Africa. She renewed the Secretary-General’s own call that the flames of conflict are fueled by inequality, deprivation and underfunded systems. She outlined that the only effective solution to conflicts in Africa is sustainable development to boost the capacities of African countries to tackle both the internal and external causes of conflict.
Also briefing the Council was Mirko Manzoni, the Personal Envoy of the Secretary-General for Mozambique. He spoke about the signing and implementation of the Maputo Accord for Peace and National Reconciliation between the Government of Mozambique and the Renamo group. He pointed out four fundamental reasons for its success: establishing national ownership from the outset, building trust, remaining flexible and ensuring a human-centred process throughout.
Mr. Manzoni stressed the success of a peace process should not be measured by the difficulties it encounters. Rather, it should be judged on the basis of how those involved choose to overcome such difficulties.
MOZAMBIQUE/HUMANITARIAN
Also on Mozambique, U.N. humanitarian colleagues are appealing for additional funding to help some 815,000 men, women and children impacted by a triple crisis: floods, cholera and Tropical Cyclone Freddy.
Our humanitarian colleagues tell us that an extra $138 million is urgently needed to complement the Government’s response in southern and central areas of the country. This is in addition to the existing 2023 Humanitarian Response Plan for Mozambique, which calls for $513 million and is just 12 percent funded.

BBC News Video: Premier League clubs avoided £250m in tax, experts estimate - BBC Newsnight
Are Premier League clubs avoiding millions of pounds of tax on agents' fees which ought to be paid?
That's what new research from the think tank Tax Policy Associates, obtained exclusively by Newsnight, suggests. Between 2019 and 2021 the suggestion is that top clubs avoided up to a quarter of a billion pounds in various forms of tax through a practice called 'dual representation' - that's where an agent represents and is paid for by both the player and a club.
Newsnight can reveal that HMRC is investigating “a number of clubs” in the top two leagues of English football over their use of the tax practice - which is widespread within the industry, and remains legal.
Newsnight’s Economics Editor Ben Chu investigates.

Donald Trump has been indicted over a hush-money payment made to a porn star and will become the first former US president to be charged with a crime.
Manhattan Grand Jury is accusing Trump of falsifying business records as $130,000 was paid to Stormy Daniels.
The payment was to prevent her from speaking publicly about an adulterous affair she claims to have had with Mr. Trump back in 2006.
However, it is still unclear which charges will he face.
If he were to be arrested, Trump’s lawyers have confirmed that he would turn himself in and have his fingerprints and a mug shot taken.

Global Video: Mummering: Newfoundland's unique holiday tradition comes roaring back
This past weekend in St. John’s Newfoundland, hundreds of people hit the streets for the Atlantic province’s annual Mummers Parade.
As part of this festive tradition, people gather up old clothes that have been lying around the house –tablecloths and oversized shirts are a favourite – and assemble a “mummer’s rig” or costume.
Originally, mummering was a house-visiting tradition. It first appeared in Newfoundland and Labrador in the 1800’s, though the practice dates back much further than that. Mummers would visit their neighbours in disguise, looking for beer and a bite to eat.
Alyssa Julie has more on the history of mummering - and the dark parts of its past.

Just days ahead of her 40th birthday, Hilary Boswell received a terrifying diagnosis – She had breast cancer.
She received a unilateral mastectomy, a surgery she didn’t necessarily want but felt pressured into by her surgeon. It left her with one breast and, she says, it changed the way she saw herself.
“I remember struggling so much with the idea of walking around with one boob,” she said. “I just really felt like I knew what I wanted… and yeah, I wish I had done it, “ she added, referring to a double mastectomy.
Like Boswell, other cancer survivors sometimes struggle to accept the changes brought on by surgery or chemotherapy – such as early menopause, or loss of libido. And they don’t always get the support they need.
As Alyssa Julie reports in our series Against all Odds, some survivors and experts are asking health professionals to shed more light on the impact of a cancer diagnosis on the body and the mind.

Global Video: Outside the margins: BIPOC and LGBTQ2 breast cancer patients rewrite the narrative
People from racialized and 2SLGBTQQIA+ communities are underrepresented in the institution of cancer care, and they’re slipping through the cracks because of it.
“I really felt like my issues didn’t matter. And I didn’t feel confident in making a decision about a life-changing surgery because I didn’t see myself represented,” said Michelle Audoin, the founder of Uncovered: A Breast Recognition Project. “The fact that I didn’t see myself in this space and my questions weren’t being addressed, it led to depression.”
For breast cancer, a reproductive cancer, the disparity can be especially apparent for the latter group. One thing is clear: it’s time to rewrite the narrative of what a typical cancer survivor looks like.
To do so, members of the community across Canada are fighting against these gaps, from diversifying what breast cancer looks like to writing a graphic memoir.

Global Video: "It's part of everybody's history": CNE's post-pandemic return revives multi-generational traditions
The Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) is back in Toronto after a two-year pandemic hiatus, and with its return, small businesses that struggled with the closure are back.
With revenue going from 100 to 0 when the Exhibition closed for two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, being back at the CNE this year is extra-special for patrons and especially the small family businesses passed down from generation to generation.
“As much as this is a generational business for me and a family business, it’s also something that is an experience that generations have gone to the CNE and enjoyed,” said Sam Scanga, owner of several food booths at the CNE he runs with his family, referring to attendees’ love of his Primo Spaghetti 1.99. "It's part of everybody's history."
Global's Alexia Kapralos and Katherine Cheng have some of their stories.
