Creation Care: Paperless = Trees

by

1 minute

We pay all our bills online. And, to be honest, going paperless for many of our accounts was less about creation care (i.e., saving trees) and more about having less clutter. It’s pretty sweet that going paperless not only provides for less clutter but also in a real way saves trees. So consider the below and consider switching whichever accounts permit to paperless in order to have less clutter and more trees.

On another note, isn’t Citi bank one who’s on the verge of going the way of Fannie Mae? The paperless, tree initiative might be the least of their worries. Nonetheless, woo-hoo trees!

If trees could talk, 1.8 million would say 'Thanks' to Citi Cardmembers.

Thanks to Citi Cardmembers like you who’ve enrolled in Paperless Statements, we’ve taken a giant step toward helping the environment. Through our relationship with the Arbor Day Foundation, a tree was donated on behalf of each cardmember who switched to Paperless Statements from January 2007 through September 2008. Here’s a look at what we’ve been able to accomplish:

• Planted 1.8 million trees
• Saved 6,800 trees
• Helped make 14 national forests greener

In addition to our Paperless Statements initiative, Citi has been fully committed to improving the environment by planting trees in local communities and visiting schools to teach children about the benefits of trees.

Thank you for doing your part to help the environment by switching to Paperless Statements. Together, we will continue to make a difference by saving even more trees – one less paper statement at a time.
