America Recycles Day Anheuser-Busch, the world's largest recycler, celebrated America Recycles Day on November 15, 2003. America Recycles Day is an event intended to raise the public's awareness of the benefits of recycling. Americans celebrated recycling by pledging to increase their recycling activities and by purchasing more products made from recycled materials as part of the Seventh-Annual America Recycles Day. Individuals who made a pledge were entered into a drawing to win a new Ford Focus PZEV, Trek aluminum bicycles, and a "Recycle Yourself Weekend" vacation package. Anheuser-Busch has been a long-time leader in recycling and conservation, receiving numerous awards for its environmental efforts. The Anheuser-Busch Recycling Corporation, founded in 1978, is the largest recycler of aluminum cans in the world. Through a widespread network of aluminum recycling suppliers, the company now recycles more than 100 percent of the aluminum cans sold domestically by the beer company.
