ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Fifth graders from the LEGO robotics team at RCSD School No. 17 are hosting a lithium battery recycling event at starting 2:30 p.m. on Thursday.
The students at the Enrico Fermi School are raising awareness of the dangers of lithium batteries winding up in a landfill, which can contaminate the ground. The event is at the school on 158 Orchard Street.
Students on the LEGO robotics team recently won an award at a competition where they came up with the idea for the lithium-ion battery recycling event.
