US Global MailUS Global MailBeing in the mail industry, we see first hand the mountains of junk mail that people get everyday. Which prompted us to start digging into the impact of junk mail on our planet.
We were shocked to find that of the 5,600,000 lbs of junk mail is printed every year, less than a quarter of it is recycled. Which means 4.3 Million lbs of junk mail ends up in America’s landfills every year.
In handling mail to provide a better way for people to manage their mail and reduce the negative impact of junk mail in our lives.
An average American spends 32 weeks of their life sorting through junk mail! And a 100 Million trees are cut each year to print junk mail. We want to change that. We want to reclaim the 32 weeks back for ourselves and for you. And plant a 100 Million trees to reduce the forest debt junk mail creates.
We shred and recycle all junk and discarded mail for our members. But that’s not enough. Our dream is to recycle ALL the junk mail that gets printed. All 5.6 Million Pounds of it. Because that would mean we not only help recycle millions of tons of junk mail that otherwise would not get recycled but we also reduce the number of garbage trucks on our streets that transport this junk mail – 340,000 trucks every year by some estimates.
More than 100,000,000 trees get cut to print junk mail every year. Yes, a 100,000,000 trees. Deforestation accounts for almost 20% of the worlds carbon footprint.
We decided to not only neutralize the carbon foot print for our members, but actually reverse it. So for each user, we plant a tree to compensate for the junk mail created for them. Are you ready to join the movement?
