  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Go Paperless
    Reducing your paper mail can reduce mental clutter as well as physical waste -- 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?

    I made a goal to stop one mailer per week! This week I stopped the monthly mailer from the local food bank for donations. I also opted out of mailed statements for my kid's 529 plan! Small steps!!!

      Andrea, keep up the good work on this! I need to do more as I have way too much junk mail coming to my address! Stopping one per week is manageable too!
