(Slightly...)
Not to derail this but...
OK, you're sending your junk mail back to the sender...
The mail gets picked up by your mailman in his truck. (<--burns gas)
He puts it in mail sorting machine to sort it. (<--uses electricity)
From there, it goes onto a truck to go to a hub. (<-- burns gas)
The hub is next to an airport, so the mail goes onto a plane. (<--burns fuel)
From the plane, the mail goes to another hub for sorting.(<--uses electricity)
After it's sorted, it goes onto a truck to go to the post office. (<--burns gas)
At the post office, it goes into a sorting machine. (<-- uses electricity)
And from there, it goes into mail bag and onto a truck. (<--burns gas)
So the mail goes back to the sender, who can't resend or use it and so they put it in the paper recycling bin (hopefully).
Tell me again how this is "green" or saves you money or ??? what?
You're not really sticking it to the sender - you're sticking it to the US Postal Service, when you consider it. Who pays for that? The consumer (us!)....
So simply write the
mailing brokers (there's only 4 and I believe most accept emails) - and ask to have your name taken off the third class (junk mail) lists.
Or...
Use that junk mail to start your next bonfire...
Give it to the kids to cut out the pictures...
Throw it in your own recycling bin...
Toss it into the mulcher...
Line your bird cage with it...
Y'all are Yankees - be resourceful!
