Stop Your Junk Mail

Stop your junk mail and help the Sierra Business Council

Would you like to stop junk mail, help the environment, and raise money for the Sierra Business Council? We’ve found a way - by partnering with 41pounds.org. For $41, the 41pounds.org service will contact twenty to thirty-five direct mail companies to remove your name from their distribution lists. This includes almost all credit card applications, coupon mailers, and magazine offers, plus the catalogs you specify.

41pounds.org does all the leg-work to reduce your junk mail by 80-95% for five years - and donates $15 to the Sierra Business Council! Thanks to this service, we can:

• Use our forest resources wisely. More than 100 million trees are destroyed each year to produce junk mail. 42% of timber harvested nationwide becomes pulpwood for paper.
• Reduce global warming. The world’s temperate forests absorb 2 billion tons of carbon annually. Creating and shipping junk mail produces more greenhouse gas emissions than 2.8 million cars.
• Use water resources wisely. About 28 billion gallons of water are wasted to produce and recycle junk mail each year.
• Use your time wisely. You waste about 70 hours a year dealing with junk mail.

Stop junk mail and support the Sierra Business Council. It takes only a few minutes to sign up and the service lasts for five years. For more information please visit www.41pounds.org or call 866.417.4141.
