If you hate junk mail, then check out Greendimes. They reduce your junk mail, plant a tree for you every month, protect your identity and will even pay your bills for you. Well, maybe that last part is made up, but sounds pretty cool. All for a small monthly fee.

They say:

It’s a crazy world out there and who has time to sort through mountains and mountains of junk mail? Important mail could be tossed out or overlooked because it is hidden under a forest of junk mail. A literal forest - did you know 100 million trees are toppled over just to make the amount of junk mail sent to American homes every year?
