It seems like the whole country has gone digital in the past few years. Personally, I always thought the idea of receiving paper snail mail rather than e-mail has a nice sincere touch to it. Not only have personal letters gone digital but now it seems that bills and invoices will be coming in your e-mail inbox! For example, T-Mobile has decided to “go green”. This “paperless billing” started a while back but they are now charging an extra $1.50 to your bill if you receive it in the mail. If you decide not to receive your invoice in the mail, you will get your bill online. The results are what shocked me most (in a positive way). T-Mobile said that if all 16.5 million costumers went digital they would save an annual savings of 10.8 million pounds of paper, which is saving about 13,500 trees!
This only furthered my questioning, what if all mail went digital? Do you think this could ever work? I know, this is a big statement, but think about how many trees we could save with having only online magazines, catalogs, and greeting cards!
