Five billion phones are dead in drawers – carriers want to mine them

as if those are at all equivalent

glass beer bottle: goes in the blue bin which gets picked up 20 ft from my home.

batteries: goes in the e-waste disposal bin inside the engineering building at the local university’s campus, a 10 minute walk from the gardens i visit twice a year, those gardens a 30 minute busride from my home.

no, of course i don’t recycle my batteries. it’s super unusual that i even know *where* i could recycle them without googling for an hour.
