Battery operation is based on a set of chemical reactions that provide a percentage of amounts of electricity, which though small, allows the operation of small engines or electronics. But this advantage in favor of autonomy is opposed to the negative effects of chemical compounds used in the reaction which produces electricity, since they are mostly heavy metals, since being released to cause serious environmental pollution problems.
Consequences of not recycling:

GLOBAL WARMING

Is the increase in global average temperature, caused mainly by the gases carbon dioxide and other air pollutants accumulate in the atmosphere like an increasingly thick layer, trapping the sun's heat and causing global warming. The main sources of contamination by the emission of carbon dioxide are power generation plants based on coal, as issued 2.500 million tons per year.
