Plastic Challenge: Nan, Week 2

I could use some help with all the mail I get. I’m a little scared to do everything on-line (banking especially). I get a lot of mail from outfits I don’t even know. I have twice called the cable co. to stop the mailings and they are still coming (yes, Comcast we still use a [...]

Plastic Challenge: Kristin, Week 14

I have yet to remember (in 14+ weeks) to ask for no straw when dining out. I have no idea why…. any tips? Annoying amazon.ca packing pillows: I had full intentions of commenting on my order for no plastic packaging to be included, but totally forgot at the last minute. Does anyone know if they [...]

Plastic Challenge: Becca Ryals and Gordon Bennett, Week 14

I have pretty much eliminated most of my unwanted junk mail, but Comcast still send me at least one letter a week, often addressed to “current resident.” I already called them and they said they would stop the letters, but they haven’t. Any suggestions for how to change their behaviors?
