    Yeah you don’t need to over pay on batteries to recycle them just take them to your local recycling center… GREENWASH

        More of an education problem. Which won’t really be fixed by this… Right like I don’t know anyone who is going to pay extra for these batteries for something they already don’t care about.

        Depends on where you live… Like in Mississauga this is a non-starter due to local programs. I think it has a better chance of targeting rich Americans that don’t have these local recycling programs and are more susceptible to paying to greenwash.

        Our apartment building has a bucket in the lobby for old batteries. Those go to the recycling place every year or whenever anyone is going that way.
