A blog that attempts to provide you with useful examples and tips that could make a large positive ecological impact, although they are seemingly minor, quick and easy changes to your daily routine.

Tip #4: Stop junk mail  

Budget Required: free – $41 for 5 years
Time Required: couple of minutes
Estimated Impact: Huge, see www.41pounds.org/impact for details

Tip: There are several ways to reduce junkmail. There are free ways so you can diy: obviously.com/junkmail, ecofuture.org/jnkmail.html, globalstewards.org/junkmail.htm, junkbusters.com and opt-out.cdt.org

Also there are paid services: From the website www.41pounds.org: “The average adult receives 41 pounds of junk mail each year. Our (41pounds.org) service stops 80-95% of unwanted catalogs and junk mail for you. We’ll (41pounds.org) contact dozens of companies on your behalf to STOP YOUR JUNK MAIL and PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT.”

I can’t say if the paid service works since we’ve just only signed up. I’ll post an update in a month.
