Conservation recommendation for consumables

#42: Sign up for online banking and billpay.

Ponder for a moment the number of receipts, bills, banks statements, and other finance-related papers you accumulate over the course of a year. Between producing and shipping the paper, printing the statements, mailing them to you, and your writing checks to mail back, it all adds up to a lot of trees, time, and carbon. You can help reduce the hassle and impact by signing up for paperless billing and banking. Also, avoid taking receipts if you don’t need one (say at the gas pump).

Help me do this!

Most banks will be happy to help you sign up for their paperless statements — after all it makes things easier for them! Many service providers (phone, internet, cable or satellite television, etc.) feel the same way.

If you use online banking and paperless billing with the Brighter Planet Visa card, you’ll receive an extra ton (2,000 lbs.) of offsets when you sign up!
