INC NEWS - Easy way to cancel unwanted catalogs

[Melissa Rooney]

I was recently clued in to a great web service where
they will cancel any unwanted catalogs that you
receive in the mail, and thought other eco-minded
folks in our neighborhood might be interested in it as
well.  It is super easy to use, and you can pick
exactly which catalogs you want to cancel (thus still
receiving those you do want to get).  How great is
that?

>From the Catalog Choice website: 
Nineteen billion paper catalogs are sent through the
mail each year Number of trees used – 53 million trees
Pounds of paper used – 3.6 million tons of paper
Energy used to produce this volume of paper – 38
trillion BTUs, enough to power 1.2 million homes per
year
Contribution to global warming – 5.2 million tons of
carbon dioxide emissions, equal to the annual
emissions of two million cars Waste water discharges
from this volume of paper – 53 billion gallons of
water, enough to fill 81,000 Olympic-sized swimming
pools.

Cheers,
