If you can, be picky about which thrift store, junk remover, and recycler you choose. Thrift stores sometimes put usable donations in dumpsters.

None of the batteries we use are exactly great for the environment—mining for their components creates pollution and so does disposing of them in landfills and incinerators. On the positive side, low self-discharge nickel-metal hydride rechargeables last longer than single-use bat-teries.
