Energy Efficient Lightbulbs

Eco Fact: Did you know that every day more solar energy falls on the Earth than the total amount of energy that the planet’s 5.9 billion inhabitants would consume in 27 years.

Reduce your energy use: save yourself money in the long run and reduce your footprint on the planet. If everybody bought just one energy efficient lightbulb, we could shut down a power station.

Four Easy Ways To Cut Down On Unwanted Mail

  1. Join the Mailing Preference Service (MPS) this will stop personally addressed unsolicited mail.
  2. Royal Mail Door-to-Door. By ‘opting out’ you will stop unaddressed mailings from businesses and organisations. However by choosing this ‘opt out’ scheme you may miss out on important central government and local government information but this can usually be viewed on-line. Address: Royal Mail Door-to-Door Opt Outs, Kingsmead House, Oxpens Road, Oxford OX1 1RX.
  3. Put a ‘No Junk Mail’ notice on your mailbox to discourage individuals delivering door to door promotional materials.
