We Are Taking Going Green To The Next Level

Because we pride ourselves on being a Green Spa, we are always looking for ways to stay up to date on who is green what they are doing, and how we can get involved.Our latest find was brilliant so we could not help but share it with you.

Yellow Pages Goes Green!

What Does This Mean?

More paper for textbooks.
About 540 million unsolicited phonebooks arrive at American doors annually - takes a lotta trees to make those.

Majoring in waste reduction.

Phonebooks make for about 660,000 tons of trash every year.

Extra credit less annoyance.

Just lugging phonebooks into the house when you know you'll never use them is a pain.
Personally Speaking none of us have used a paper phonebook since the advent of Google SMS (send a text message to 466453 with business name and zip code, and you'll get the number and address sent to you).

Wanna Try?

Earth 911- recycle your old phonebooks (if you have curbside recycling, just toss them in there).
