Getting rid of junk mail

Each year the average household in America receives 1.5 trees' worth of junk mail.  42% of timber harvested nationwide ends up as pulpwood for paper.  Just think of the resources we could save if everyone reduced just their junk mail each year.  Visit www.41pounds.org to sign up for their service.  They do all the leg work and stop your junk mail for five years.  It costs $41, but is well worth it.
Another good resource is yellowpagesgoesgreen.org.  Visiting this site can get rid of the unwanted yellow pages that end up on your doorstep.
