Residents of southeast L.A. County rejoiced this year at
news that a battery recycling plant that had long emitted
lead, arsenic and other dangerous pollutants would be
closed.
http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-exide-cleanup-story...When I worked as a stock boy at K-Mart in the 1990s I remember a whole corner of the loading dock was kept stacked with used and returned batteries, many of them leaking all over the place. I was just a kid and didn't know much, but I knew enough to not want to go anywhere near them. Thankfully only those working at the return counter and on the loading dock handled the batteries. |
