In landfills, heavy metals have the potential and the ability to slowly leach into the soil, groundwater or surface water. Dry cell batteries contribute about 88 percent of the total Mercury and 50 percent of the cadmium in the municipal solid waste stream. When burned, some heavy metals such as mercury may vaporize and escape into the air, and cadmium and lead may end up in the ash.
they give oxygen to humans.
Batteries comprise of many toxic chemicals and elements such as lead, mercury, nickel & cadmium. If not properly disposed, these elements enter the environment and accumulate over generations causing disease, defects and poisoning. When incinerated, some types of metals found in batteries may be released into the air, and that is the air us humans breathe. Those metals can also concentrate in the ash which is produced by the combustion process.
Humans make a wide range of choices on this dear earth, some are bad that destroy things like the atmosphere and other things we need. We also do make every day life easier for ourselves. But we are killing the planet.
it affect humans
1)They would leave out foul smell because of decaying.2)They will lead to formation of humus after decaying thus resulting in increase of soil fertility.3)They will serve as breeding ground for flies & mosquitoes and can cause many diseases like cholera, typhoid, etc.1 extra point if u dont like any
why the irresponsible discarding of batteries adversely affects humans and environment at large
It is detrimental to the environment and humans if batteries are not disposed of in a responsible way because it can cause pollution. This pollution can kill plants and animals that humans rely on.
Humans affect the enviorment by the green house affect ,polution and having landfills
By a pollution...
they give oxygen to humans.

They don't affect us!
Humans often affect the jaguar's environment in a negative way. Humans go into their habitat and cut down hunt, trap, and cut down trees. This makes life harder for the jaguar.

Humans can destroy the environment, humans can pollute, humans can capture animals, and sometimes humans can clean up trash.
Polymers can release reactants that are harmful to humans. Not only can they harm humans, but they can harm the environment as well.
