Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances—or PFAS—have quickly positioned themselves as one of the leading public health crises of our time thanks to their potential health effects and widespread presence. Dubbed “forever chemicals” due to their near-indestructible nature, they have been in use in a wide variety of consumer goods and industrial applications for decades. And now, PFAS compounds are turning up in drinking water worldwide. (Source: TapScore) This week we will learn how Zone 7 is keeping PFAS out of our drinking water. We will welcome General Manager of Engineering and Operations, Chris Hentz.

Jan. 12, 2025 11:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
All community members are invited to drop off their used lithium-ion batteries and/or their devices that contain lithium-ion batteries for free recycling. Rotary club members will be at Tri-Valley Car Care from 11 am - 5 pm on Sunday, January 12 to accept your items and have them safely recycled to help our environment. What you can recycle:
Please note: To recycle your device, the item must contain a lithium-ion battery. It must not require a plugged-in cord to operate. We only accept rechargeable items with lithium-ion batteries. Why should you recycle lithium-ion batteries?
Why it mattersAs the world electrifies to combat climate change, lithium-ion battery demand is projected to increase by 500 percent in the coming years. These batteries will be needed for new electric vehicles and clean energy products but additionally, demand for rechargeable consumer devices is also increasing that source these same materials. Batteries are in nearly every consumer device; from cell phones to laptops, e-bikes to scooters and electric toothbrushes to vacuum cleaners and power drills, consumer demand for rechargeable batteries is skyrocketing. And, as more electric vehicles hit our roads, we’ll need more and more batteries. All lithium-ion batteries are made up of varying amounts of critical minerals like cobalt, copper, nickel, and lithium. Whether a laptop or an electric vehicle, lithium-ion batteries source the same elements on the periodic table. What’s perhaps even more incredible is that these metals can be recycled almost infinitely. Because metal atoms don’t degrade, recycled lithium or nickel units perform the same as newly mined material – in fact, sometimes even better! This creates a tremendous opportunity for recycling. This program brings us one step closer to creating a domestic, circular supply chain for all end-of-life batteries and solving the environmental impacts of new products before they happen.
This project is in partnership with other Rotary Clubs and with Redwood Materials. To learn more, please visit Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling.
