no junk mail copy Stop Junk Snail Mail and Plant a Tree SimultaneouslyWho likes getting junk snail mail? Not me that’s for sure. It’s either a dozen credit card offers or catalogs cramming up my tiny mailbox for my apt. I toss half of it away and the other I have to shred so I’m not a victim of identity theft. I have always been an avid supporter of recycling my junk magazines and catalogs but Greendimes.com takes it one step further. Using their website you can control the type of junk mail you want and don’t want. For every piece of mail stopped for $4 a month or $36 a year they will reduce the junk you get in the mailbox and help you keep your private life private and plant a seeds for trees in your name. It’s good for the environment and it saves time sorting and tossing junk mail that you will never read. The planting of a tree takes place in South America, Central America, and Haiti just to name a few. Who knew junk mail could actually be useful for the environment.

    Hi, I love this concept. I just want to know how you discern junk mail for example credit card ads from bank statements from various accounts?
    Do you eliminate any piece of mail that looks impersonal? Just wondering how it all works. THanks.

    I meticulously shred,burn,and recycle all our “junk” mail. Use their
    stamped envelope if incluced and some times one of my own stampe to say
    ” take me off your lists” I’d love to know how your program works–
    We want to save trees and stop this deluge of unwanted mail.

    Thanks, Ana Vollmann

    It sounds like a good idea. I hope we have something like this in my country. There are so many papers wasted here. Keep up the good work…
