Where do you bring batteries that have lost their power (because throwing them out is bad for the environment)

Answer 1

See the link below for more info.

Answer 2

It depends on where you live if there is a battery recycling center near by.

According to:
"The dry cell battery chemistry types are: Alkaline, Zinc Carbon, Nickel Metal Hydride, Nickel Cadmium, Lithium Ion, Lithium, Mercury, Silver, and Lead Acid.

OR go to this website: http://www.ehso.com/ehso2.php?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.earth911.org/master.asp?s=ls&serviceid=126
And enter your zip code in the box on the left hand side of the screen, but I tried 3 zip codes with no results so the centers are probably fairly rare.

OR call 1-800-CLEAN-UP (253-2687) and ask them

OR go to this google search: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4WZPA_enUS224US224&q=battery+recycling+center+locations
and find your nearest location. If you type enter it in on your computer it should come up with a list of local companies on the right side.

Answer 3
