4.5 million tons of junk mail goes out yearly, and 44% of it hits the landfill unopened and unread. In fact, the average person throws out 41pounds of unwanted junk mail each year. This amounts to over 100 million trees being cut down each year to produce all that junk mail. Our partner 41pounds.org reduces your junk mail by removing your name from commercial mailing lists thereby preventing unwanted mail from ever making its way to your door.

This holiday season, we’re working with 41pounds.org to promote a gift idea that gives you big bang for your buck. With one donation, 41pounds.org stops junk mail and Carbonfund.org plants trees. It’s that simple. For each person that signs up for 41pounds.org’s service and chooses Carbonfund.org, Carbonfund.org will plant a tree. You’ll stop annoying junk mail, reduce your carbon footprint, and we’ll plant a tree, all from one $41 donation!

This was my gift to my parents last year. It takes a few months to really see the difference because many companies prepare their mailers far ahead of time. However, my parents couldn’t be happier with how much paper they’re saving. Check out 41pounds.org today and give someone you care about the holiday gift that keeps on giving.
