Rechargeables have TOXIC chemicals. These Don't. Regardless of the fact that you will use the rechareables over until they no longer hold a decent charge (which of course really isn't that long), you will still throw them away. Now, the environmentally concious person will actually think about recycling them (but most likely will NOT the day he actually goes to throw them away because it's just a hassel). Whereas the average consumer will just toss their rechargeables without a seond thought.

With these batteries, NO SPECIAL EFFORTS are needed to throw them away except that which requires you to get off your duff, walk to the can and toss the batteries in it.

You can argue all you like with whoever it is you think it's worth arguing about... Bottom line though is, in the end these will be better for Mother Earth
