Battery Disposal and Recycling 
Lithium batteries such as the backup battery in PowerBook (FireWire)

batteries to be disposed of as hazardous waste. 
After removing a dead backup battery, clip off the lead wires and place the 
battery into the zip-lock wrapper that the replacement battery came in.
