Stop the junk mail

Marie Lovric sent the following contribution to our blog:

I just signed my name onto a petition asking Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, to support the creation of a Do Not Mail Registry in the United States.

Please consider adding your name to the list of supporters calling for the creation of a national Do Not Mail Registry.

Junk mail is more than just an annoyance; it's an environmental crisis. Every year, junk mail production destroys 100 million trees, creating as much global warming emissions equivalent to the emissions of 3.7 million cars.

We deserve the right to protect our privacy and our time. We deserve clean air and forest protection. Sign our petition today and take back your mailbox:

Our green page in confluence also list the following solutions:
  • Stop your junk mail directly at the DMA or with Green Dimes
  • Opt out of receiving "pre-approved" credit offer in your mail at OptOut
Thanks Marie!!!
