> I feel like there's not enough easily accessible information in the wild about what you're supposed to do with old electronics, and especially batteries.

Here in Norway it is in principle rather easy. The law requires shops that sell electronics, batteries, light bulbs and such to accept and handle such goods for recycling.

So, if you can buy it there, you can deliver it for recycling there.

There's also plenty of information about this in various ads, physical and social media, so hard to not know.

Yet people throw batteries and whatnot right in the trash, or worse. Some people just don't care about others, is my conclusion.
