Junk mail. Despite efforts to get off lists, we still get tons of it. My business mailbox is even worse – my box is always full of both addressed and unaddressed junk mail.

But you can do something about unaddressed junk mail. I got this message today from a Facebook group I belong to:

A few Vancouver sustainability instigators have just launched the Red Dot Campaign – Canada Post will honour your wish to have no unaddressed junk mail delivered if you place the dot on your mailbox.

For info: www.reddotcampaign.ca – you can download a snazzy dot from the site.
Spread the word!

And a great big thank you to the campaign leaders for taking the initiative!

Check them out at the Red Dot website.

The process is super simple – just download the Red Dot PDF from the site, and you’re off.

Who-ever you ‘sustainability instigators’ are, and to Canada Post – THANK YOU !

Coincidentally, as I was writing, Aron posted about the move to get rid of plastic bags – easily replaced by reusable cloth bags. It’s nice to see most grocery retailers going this way – we used our Duthie Books cloth bags for years for this very purpose !
