Beth Terry over at Fake Plastic Fish just posted a funny/great piece about opting out of unwanted plastic-bagged telephone books. Until I read that piece, I'd forgotten how annoying it is to receive them. Thanks Beth!
The bottom line is this: if you're reading my blog, you've got access to the internet. I urge you to use that to find your addresses, phone numbers and directions. Save a tree and save the environment from the plastic they wrap around it.
In her post, she provided a link to Yellow Pages Goes Green, an organization that promotes the green movement to eliminate the unsolicited delivery of Yellow and White Pages books (much like the National No-Call Registry does for unwanted telephone solicitation). It's a place where you can sign up to stop receiving unwanted telephone books.
It only takes a moment of your time.
