Eight-year-old Lucy is a dedicated Earth Ranger who is always looking for ways to keep our planet healthy.<\/p>\n

She is especially concerned with all of the batteries that she sees on the streets and playgrounds in the community where she lives. With permission from her mom, Lucy picks up batteries so she can properly recycle them at her local depot. \u201cI worry about the batteries polluting the soil and getting into the food supply of squirrels and raccoons. I feel good knowing I\u2019m doing something to help.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Super<\/p>\n

Lucy first learned about Earth Rangers when she attended an Earth Rangers presentation at the Royal Ontario Museum. She has completed Bring Back the Wild<\/a> campaigns for the barn swallow<\/a> and the bobolink<\/a>. Lucy also recycles, composts and brings litter-free lunches to school.<\/p>\n

Thank you, Lucy, for helping to keep your community clean. Collecting and recycling batteries properly is extremely important because batteries can have a serious impact on the environment and animals that need healthy and clean habitats to survive.
