Want to make Mother Nature mad? Cut down 100,000,000 trees, use 28 billion gallons of water, spew out CO2 to drive it around and then send it all to a landfill. If I were junk mail, I’d be shaking in my envelope.
Production of junk mail consumes natural resources and energy to make the annoying, unsolicited, endless attempts to sell you things you don’t want. And then it’s your problem to sort through and recycle. Not to mention the added risk of identity theft which will cut into the dollars you were planning to send to Sierra Club.

Gidday,
I just wanted to mention our own service stopthejunkmail.com. We have been helping our members stop the junk mail since 2001 and have had a long relationship with American Forests to plant trees on behalf of our members. We have also just launched a blog to answer consumer questions about how to stop your junk mail.
Cheerio,
Margot at stopthejunkmail.com
