Celebrate The Earth – Stop Junk!

April 22, 2009

‘); //–>41pounds.org

Did you know that more than 100 million trees are destroyed each year for junk mail? Plus, 28 billion gallons of water and enough energy to power 2.8 million cars? When you stop junk mail and catalogs, you keep trees in the forests doing what they do best — providing oxygen for us to breathe and absorbing CO2 to keep our planet cool and healthy.

For $41 — that’s just $8.20 a year or 2 cents a day — 41pounds.org does all the legwork to reduce your junk mail and catalogs by 80-95% for FIVE years. They’ll also donate $15 to Born Free USA united with API for each new sign-up. In celebration of Earth Day — April 22, 2009 — accept the 41Pounds challenge! If Born Free USA signs at least 50 new accounts during April, 41Pounds will provide an additional generous donation to Born Free USA!

When you register, 41pounds.org will contact 20–35 direct mail companies to remove your name from their distribution lists. This includes almost all credit card applications, coupon mailers and magazine offers, plus any catalogs you specify.

It’s that simple! Stop your junk mail by visiting Born Free USA united with API’s dedicated link to 41pounds.org or call 866-417-4141. It only takes a few minutes to make a big difference for you and for the animals.

No one is paying me to talk about this – but as a junk mail junkie for more years than I can count (they used to call me “The Catalog Queen”), I can’t think of a better way to break the vicious cycle. For more information, please visit this product’s webpage. And while you’re at it, please check out Born Free USA united with the Animal Protection Institute’s site, too!

Happy Day, Earth!
