Falcons to Host Annual Rise Up and Recycle Day

On Saturday, Aug. 1, the Falcons will hold their annual Rise Up and Recycle Day, a campaign that encourages fans to join the organization’s efforts to support green initiatives. This event, now in its seventh year, is possible thanks to a partnership with Atlanta-based Novelis — the biggest recycling company in the world.

As we continue to promote recycling, here are five important numbers to keep in mind:

100: The percentage of aluminum cans that are recyclable, and Matt Bryant’s PAT percentage in his five seasons with the Falcons.

60: Number of days it takes for a recycled aluminum can to be back on store shelves.
