    Grandma hates the environment and wants to make sure no one gets to enjoy it after she’s gone

        Lead acid batteries have a 99% recycling rate.

          The youtube videos of the sweatshops in India/Pakistan where they do the recycling are riveting af.

            When I’m broke and homeless I’m going to follow those videos step by step to recycle batteries. My apocalypse wilderness shelter is going to have electricity it’ll be sick.

              Don’t forget the part where you buy all of the extremely hazardous acid before the apocalypse.

              And then remember to do the wiring of your shelter before you breath in all the acid and lead fumes.

              Get the order wrong there and you’re just gonna burn all your tanks of acid.

                That’s exactly right. It’s too hard and it doesn’t work. Nobody should try to do this and should definitely leave any relevant supplies behind for not me to get to instead.

      I thought most grandmas knew that car batteries definitely belong in a beautiful blue ocean, especially ones with little to no car batteries. Is a life without throwing car batteries into the ocean even worth living? If you need someone to talk to, or even just to go throw car batteries into an ocean with HMU.

      I just wanted to double check, and holy crap it’s real:

      How to fuck up the water table in your surrounding area real fast.

      Fun fact, doing this could create a monetary liability far in excess of the value of your home and property.

        It’s also not going to be particularly healthy drinking if your home has its own well rather than being on city water. Which where I live, is very common for detached homes.

    Lead acid batteries are worth a decent amount of money as scrap, don’t throw them out.

      It’s a meme, hence why it’s ridiculous.

      Where do you put your car batteries? I’m pretty sure they belong in an ocean bro.
