How to discard dead batteries

Just a modest request for folks NOT to put 3000-pixel-wide pictures inline in the forum. A link to the big picture works just as well while keeping the text readable. Thanks. - Rick TYler [more]

How to discard dead batteries

Last night, we noticed that one of our practice batteries had died and would no longer take a charge. Since I know that simply tossing the battery into the trash is not a viable or safe option, I was wondering what other teams have done to dispose of their batteries after they die.

It has a large, happy recycling symbol on it, but how and where can these be recycled?
