Stop Junk Mail in Dunstable- Save Paper!

Stop Junk Mail in Dunstable- Save Paper!

The Issue

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A DUNSTABLE RESIDENT TO SIGN THIS PETITION 

 

Junk mail is sent to all 1000+ households in Dunstable every day. Sometimes, these advertisements are 800-1000 pages long!  My house often gets magazines advertising the company Uline, and the magazines are about 900 pages long! All it's advertising is cardboard boxes and warehouse storing options, so we never even use them. On average, 4,281 trees are killed every year, just in the tiny town of Dunstable!  Many people just toss these magazines in the recycling or trash, and don't look through them. What's the point of wasting thousands of trees for something people put in the trash? Trees give so many organisms life and oxygen. Do you really want to take that away? As a twelve year old living in Dunstable, I'm ready to make a change. Let's stand up to deforestation and save our trees! 

By signing this petition, you are agreeing that junk mail over 5 pages should not be accepted into the Dunstable PO.  If there are junk mail magazines that you enjoy and still want to receive, you can subscribe online.
