It's not called 'Junk Mail' for nothing.

Junk Mail - no wonder our trees are vanishing!
Junk mail is more than just an annoyance; it's an environmental crisis. Every year, junk mail production destroys 100 million trees and creats as much global warming pollution as 3.7 million cars.

This lady in England is putting her junk mail on a spike outside her house to show everyone just how much junk you get. She says, "there's 200 houses in my street, so just imagine 200 X this amount" Then multiply that by every house in the UK, the US, Australia, Europe, South America, Asia...no wonder our trees are vanishing and our Earth dying!
