Batteries in general are built to not leak. The components needed to keep an electrical charge are poisonous and can be extremely hazardous to your health if swallowed or even touched. A probable cause of a battery leaking would be exposure to extreme temperatures that the inner components do not do well with. Also, after prolonged periods of time, the battery metals might begin to rust and decay, thus allowing the leak.

Can you recharge alkaline rechargeable batteries in a NIMH charger?
While it is possible with some, but not all NiMh chargers, it is not recommended. Charging alkaline batteries can make them leak chemicals. Only attempt this if you are experienced with electronics and are willing to deal with leaking batteries. The batteries often leak while being recharged, but sometimes they leak later in the device they power. Even if they do recharge, you will probably only get about 5 cycles. I would highly recommend that you get some NiMh batteries. They only cost about 6 times as much as alkalines, but they can be recharged hundreds of times.

How does batteries hurt the envoirment?
Rechargeable batteries are considered environmentally friendly because although they still contain metals and chemicals that are toxic, they are good for the environment compared to non-rechargeable batteries. Rechargeable batteries often last hundreds of times longer, meaning that less waste is produced and less resources have to be used to replace them. Also, most other environmentally friendly devices such as solar panels require rechargeable batteries in order to function. Since solar energy is not available all the time (like at night) the power must be stored in a battery, which of course has to be rechargeable. "Environmentally friendly" cars such as hybrids and fully electrical cars rely on rechargeable batteries as an alternative to fossil fuels. Basically, rechargeable batteries cut down on waste and resources needed while making other environmentally friendly devices possible.
Can you Use Regular Batteries In Inwood Solar Lights?
I would strongly suggest the use of rechargeable batteries over conventional batteries. Non rechargeable batteries could "explode" during recharging. Any rechargeable battery will work if they are the same voltage.
