World made out of metal: Aluminium

It's funny to think that aluminium was once considered so rare, that the Queen herself replaced her silver cutlery with an aluminium set :/

Great read :)

One of my favourites fun facts about aluminium is that during WWII America began recycling with an iniciative called “Tin foil drives” Were they gave the people free movie tickets in exchange of aluminum foil balls. This was great for the morale of the people, who felt were contributing with their armys effort in war.

That's pretty cool, a bit sad, but such a great initiative!
