You shouldn't. Batteries are terrible for the environment. Look for battery recycling facilities in your area to prevent poisoning our water.

What does it mean when batteries have white and yellow mould like stuff on them?

This is the dried crystals of electrolyte that leaked out when the batteries died. They can be corrosive to the electrical parts of the device or can cause chemical skin burns. Such leakage is rare with modern batteries as they use steel jackets to contain leaks, but they still sometimes happen. After disposing (recycling if possible) of the dead batteries, this powder should be cleaned off all device surfaces that you find it on with a dampened paper towel or cloth then the surfaces wiped dry. If the powder got on electronic components sometimes they are damaged irreparably, in this case contact the company that made the batteries that leaked as many have a repair/replacement policy for damage to equipment caused by their batteries.
