some tips about Batteries

Batteries that are thrown away produce most of the heavy metals. They can be harmful to humans and wildlife.

  • Turn off the toys and games that use batteries when you are not playing with them. That makes the batteries last longer, and you won't need as many of them.
  • Buy rechargeable batteries and a recharger.
  • Check to see if your device has a "Battery Save" option. If so, you can turn this on to increase the life of your battery
  • We should all take batteries to a toxic waste disposal area if it is possible.
