Recycle
Every year Consumers in the United States alone purchase close to 3 billion dry cell batteries. Where do 3 billion batteries go once there useful life is over? We would like to think that all 3 billion dead batteries go to a recycling drop off station. Unfortunately not near of the 3 billion batteries are recycled. Many of these batteries end up contaminating our soil, and polluting our lakes, streams, and wells. Batteries contain hazardous materials and should be disposed of properly. The number one reason for consumers not recycling these batteries is the lack of knowledge of where to take them. Drop off stations for batteries are closer than you may think. Did you know that Walmart is a recycling drop off station? You would be hard pressed to find more drop off locations than that of Walmart.
