• NO Receipt Please! Day
PEACEANIMAL
Location: Wherever you are!
Think you're green? Here's a way to take it a step further and make a HUGE and sustained difference for the enviornment --- and all the precious life she suports! Join us for NO Receipt Please! Day. Here are some very interesting facts from AllEtronic, (http://www.alletronic.com/index.htm) a great organization that is trying to promote a system of digital receipts: "50% of forests have been cleared and 50% of that is for paper. 9 million... trees a year, just for paper. It takes approximately 15 trees to produce a single ton of paper. Receipt paper demands in the US are 640,000 tons per year. This equates to 9,600,000 millions trees cut down each year just to produce paper receipts. So let's get started! Starting at midnight --- wherever you are --- on April 22nd, Earth Day, proactively smile broadly and state to your retailer, " NO Receipt Please! I"m saving the planet!" And then do it the next day and the next and the next! If we do this, collectively, we can change the way our planet does busness! Are you in? See if you can talk any of your local retailers into not offering receipts on April 22nd unless they are requested. OR, ask them to have their sales staff to ASK if a person would like a receipt henceforth. If they agree, list them here! Let's get to changing the world! The Season of the Earth (http://www.agnt.org/) is upon us! Let's start the celebration! Learn more about the incredible negative impact paper receipts have on our enviromnent on our new PEACEANIMAL Facebook page and let us know you'll be participating -- or if you can talk some of your local merchant's to proactively particiate! Let's get to changing the World!
