Day 75: Charged Reusable Batteries
I charged my rechargeable batteries using my USB charger.
According to Earth911.com, “On average, each person in the U.S discards eight dry-cell batteries per year. Additionally, most batteries are made up of heavy metals. Some of these toxic heavy metals in batteries include nickel, mercury and lead, which can threaten our environment if not properly discarded.”
