Green Thursday: Online Banking Saves Trees


Switch to online banking and bill paying and help save the planet. That's the message banks and businesses will soon be using to persuade us to go paperless.

If all the nation's households just received and paid bills electronically, they'd save 16.5 million trees each year, or the amount of lumber needed to build 216,054 typical single-family homes.

We're almost totally paperless in the LipsYard house, and it saves on buying stamps, too.
Every Green Thursday we post something helpful that can also help save the planet.
