Recycle Your Batteries at School

Please bring your old cell phones and batteries (regular and rechargeable) to the GG office.  Once filled, our collection box will be picked up and taken to a hazardous waste centre.

FYI,  the lead from batteries in our landfills goes into our groundwater - YUK!  Besides stored electrons, these batteries also contain complex compounds that can be harmful to the environment. Fortunately, many of these materials are also valuable enough to recover for use in re-manufacturing
