Hey folks, in the spirit of looking for more low-hanging fruit to easily reduce our carbon footprint, I started thinking about junk mail: both paper and digital. some astonishing facts about the waste created by both of these below. Easiest things to do: Put up a "No junk mail" sign on your mailbox, and unsubscribe from all the spam emails and delete your inbox.

"Mail advertisements create 51.5 million metric tons of greenhouse gases each year — equivalent to the emissions generated by heating about 13 million homes during the winter"

" By the estimated 62 trillion spam emails sent in 2008, that’s as much as driving around the Earth 1.6 million times." :

@ericvanular @briparks Very cool! I'm very interested to see how it goes too and learn more about what we can eat to stay healthy while also eating local through the winter.

Otherwise seems to be mostly blogs and opinions on them, some claiming they do and others claiming they don't work. Would be interested to know if anyone has tried them?

For sure! Looking at that, it looks like the payback for cheap dryer balls is around 3 months!
