If you have to buy batteries (some devices only take alkaline batteries), then this is a great way to go. One tip is to try rechargable batteries, even if the device says to only use alkalines. I've found the vast majority of electronics still work on rechargable batteries, though sometimes the batteries drain down more quickly. That's still a lot better than landfill waste.

Regarding the comment to buy locally, that's one approach, but that philosophy applies to almost everything Amazon sells, so not really applicable to this product specifically. I couldn't find these batteries locally, and I like the idea that there are a lot less harmful chemicals in these batteries versus the next.

I am very excited to have these new "green" batteries! I have been hearing about them from a trusted friend for monthes and have just install them in my flash light and feel confident with their longer shelf life and tighter seal that my flashlight will be working when I have an emergency. All this and safe for the enviroment! Now if we could get parents to use cloth diapers we might save the planet!

Pretending your product is "green" does not make it green. Fuji damaged its public relations image here. Be warned! This is not a green product. If you are forced to use a regular battery because a rechargeable doesn't work for the situation (some electronics can't use rechargeable batteries), then you're best to buy a generic battery at a local market for value and lower transportation emissions will make it a more "green" choice.

The practice of deceiving customers to think they are doing something environmentally helpful is called GREENWASHING. I recommend avoiding all companies that use this business practice.

You need to do your research before really believing that a product is truly "green". It is true that they don't contain any of the harmful chemicals that traditional batteries do and it is true that they will degrade over time but did you know that time limit is 1000 years? This is the same amount of time that it takes for a plastic bag to degrade. So is this truly a green product ? I agree it's moving in the right direction but the advertising makes them seem like they are the best then since the canvas bag and that is misleading. So before you purchase a product that claims to be friendlily do a bit of research and find out just how green they really are because technically turquoise is a shade of green.
