So there are are used batteries EVERYWHERE. My question is why.

You’re really cell-ing the thread there.

Cite? Everything I’ve read suggests that other than California, which is phasing them out by 2009, they are mostly lead.. From the EPA link:

Sorry! I thought that lead wheel weights were banned globally. Looks like they are still legal in the US: http://www.plombco.com/zinc.html

Japanese automobile manufacturers have already voluntarily moved away from the use of lead in automotive applications, and the European Union has placed a ban on the use of lead wheel weights effective July 2005. Faced with increasing pressure from environmental groups, Plombco feels that the North American governements will adopt a similar policy in the very near future now that lead free alternatives are now a reality.

Yes, and we have an amp-le supply of them, too.
I’m trying to be positive about the whole thing.

Uh-oh. The current trend is ever downward. To the ground.
