Stop getting junk mail

Each year the average American home receives 1.5 trees in its mailbox, in the form of unsolicited mail. That adds up to over 100 million trees cut down and over 28 billion gallons of water consumed to produce one year's worth of this country's junk mail. Over $32 million of our tax dollars are wasted each year on disposing of huge amounts of junk mail.

Get a free Stop Junk Mail Kit from the Bay Area Junk Mail Reduction Campaign at (877) STOPWASTE (786-7927) or www.StopJunkMail.org

The kit provides addresses and phone numbers of organizations set up to remove or block names on mailing lists. It also gives information on contacting service providers such as banks, insurance companies, and wireless companies to ask them to stop sending you promotional mail.
