  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Go Paperless
    Reducing your paper mail can be such a freeing action to take -- by reducing what is coming in, you can reduce what is going into the recycling bin too. How does it make you feel? What is the next step you will take to reduce your waste?

    So excited to reduce waste mailing--I didn't realize that I could also stop the delivery of phone books, as 3 different ones come to my house --what a waste of paper!  Excited to have less waste and less security risks as so much of what comes is credit card related.
