less junk

I have belonged to Green Dimes for a couple years. It is an organization that helps eliminate junk mail for you and I am continuously amazed at the reduction.
There is new news today that I may not need them much longer. Many apologies. But, it seems that credit card companies are going to be reducing their junk mail on their own. The economy has weakened just enough that it is not cost effective to produce that amount of material for the low return on investment. On top of that, catalog companies have reduced their mailings because of a rate increase by the Post Office.
All in all… less junk in your mailbox means less trees being killed for paper and less crap in our land fills. Hate to quote Martha Stewart, but…. It’s a good thing!
