In this episode, we take a closer look at how batteries are collected and why proper disposal matters more than ever. We explore the legislation that led to battery recycling schemes in supermarkets, making it easier for everyone to recycle responsibly. From the environmental risks of incorrect disposal to the systems in place today, we break it all down in a clear, practical way to help you understand what happens to your batteries after you drop them off. This episode of Recycled Content, is the 'Rubbish Process' from episode 24 of Talking Rubbish, which first aired on 9th January 2025. While every effort has been made to provide the most accurate information, recycling guidance changes quickly and some advice may become outdated over time. Always check with your local council for the rules that apply to recycling in your area. On the main Talking Rubbish podcast, we include an additions and corrections section where we update anything we may have got wrong.We would love you to join our community on DiscordSpecial thanks to our sponsor, EcosuretyTo get exclusive videos and clips, follow us on Instagram, TikTok, X, Threads or Facebook; @rubbishpodcast or YouTube: @talkingrubbishpodcastOr you can contact James and Robbie with questions or just general rubbish musings using the email address [email protected] or by texting them via WhatsApp on 07356 069 232Music licence ID: 3GXXBILNPGLYRUZF
