STOPJUNK MAIL!!!

By Holly Peterson

The average adult receives 41 pounds of junk mail each year. It is: a) annoying, and b) a massive contributor to deforestation and your individual carbon footprint. For $41, 41pounds.org will contact between 20 to 30 direct mail companies and stop the majority of bulk mail that comes to your home. The service lasts for five years so it’s really just $8.20 per year. That’s a pretty cheap price tag for sanity and an intact mailbox. Plus, more than a third of the sign-up fee goes to the charity of your choice. Save: time, trees, the planet, and your overused paper shredder.
