The Wall Street Journal’s online publication, Market Watch, reports that the presidents of the five major alkaline battery manufacturers in the United States met last week in an attempt to move forward a major initiative on consumer battery recycling.
This is not news in itself, but the willingness of these CEO’s to make a commitment to have a program in place in 2013 is a very positive development.
The presidents of Duracell, Energizer, Kodak, Rayovac and Panasonic began discussions in 2010 regarding getting a nationwide recycling program in place and now finally seem willing to commit to a date for a program roll out.
Certainly, the logistics and science in getting a program into place are complicated, but it is hard to see how plans and discussions could be going into their fourth year.
We would love to be able to point our customers towards a reliable recycling option in their community, regardless of where they live.
