Jerry worked with his school to create a program that recycles household batteries.  In order to prevent toxics from being released into groundwater or the air, it's important to dispose of batteries properly!  Jerry worked with his school so that kids could bring in batteries and leave them in a recycling bucket instead of throwing them in the trash.  Jerry and his mom Tina recycled the batteries properly at a local center.  Last year they collected more than 100 pounds of batteries!  Great work, Jerry!
