As far back as he can remember Jack Reichert has been interested in the environment. In the second grade, he rallied all of his classmates to donate one recess a week to cleaning up litter from the schoolyard. That was the same year that a city councilman asked him to help with his campaign because of the letter Jack had written asking him to clean up Boston Harbor. Ever since Jack has followed the development of the international green conscience with anticipation and hope that one day we will treat Mother Earth with the respect she deserves and not turn her into another Giving Tree. For tips, feedback and prophet sightings, Jack can be reached at jack (at) greenprophet (dot) com.
Jared — I think Jack keeps the tips general, because we have a large international following… if we had to make a list, it would be very very long… 🙂
Great tip, Jack, but why not make a list of the major companies who do so, so we can support them, and maybe even note those who do not, so we can pressure them to get with it. I now receive e-bills from Bezeq, Cellcom, Netvision 013, and Leumi Card. I also do all my banking on-line and paperless with Bank Discount. Sadly, the Electric Company, Gihon, Dor Gas, and the Jerusalem Municipality (!), still insist on sending paper through the post office. Any others out there?
