STOP THE JUNK MAIL!

It drives me nuts - going to the mail box and finding it FULL of unwanted and definityly uneeded junk mail. Recycling it helps but doens't stop the endlesss flow, dropping it back to the post office only gets in in either the garbage or recycle and when I contacted compinies myself, well I can only assume it got my name sold to others mailing lists as the amount of junk mail increased. Now I've found a way.... Yahoo!!! http://www.greendimes.com/ Here is what I've found: Green Dimes reduces the credit card offers, insurance offers, sweepstakes offers, coupon mailers, charitable solicitations and retail catalogs that your household receives. We can't reduce mailings that are the result of a personal relationship you have with the company or organization. These include magazine subscriptions, bank statements, brokerage statements and school alumni mailings. GreenDimer Jack Straw wrote: "When we moved into our new apartment, we noticed over the first couple of weeks in June that there was mail coming to 12 (yes a dozen!) different individuals. I thought...don't you people forward your mail?Now, just over three months after signing up for the service, the only mail in our box is addressed to my girlfriend and I. Equally as important, we can go a two weeks without checking the box and there is still less mail in it than one day's worth when we first moved in. Its sad that how much crap we were discarding.People...this service works." Thanks Jack. -Sanjiv Now the major WOW ... they plant trees for every unwanted magaize I list to be stopped. Green Dimes supports three non-profit tree-planting partners: American Forests, Sustainable Harvest International and Trees for the Future. These partners have programs in India, Haiti, Senegal, throughout Central America and in the U.S Your name is typically worth 3 to 20 cents each time it is sold. 100 million trees are ground up each year for ungreen friendsolicited mail. It wastes 28 billion gallons of water for paper processing each year. That's my my green friends means 4.5 million tons of junk mail produced each year! Not only water and trees are saved but the green house gas build up by the fuel burned to poduce the JUNK MAIL is stopped. 320 million of local taxes are used to dispose of unsolicited mail each year.
