Get Cleaner and Greener ASAP, For Your Own Sake

It’s easy to pooh-pooh bills that are proposed in only a few states considering all that’s needed for a federal law to be passed. Just 15 states proposed do-not-mail bills in 2007; eight will propose such legislation when the new Congress starts in 2008, although more are expected to follow suit next year. Still, this is a matter you can’t pooh-pooh. And as of this writing, 57 percent of those who voted in our current Web poll said they were unaware of this threat. (If you haven’t cast your vote yet, please go to the upper right corner of our home page and do so; hopefully more of you are, in fact, aware of it and are doing something about it.)
