The satellite company that brings the golf channel into your home with the greens of professional golfing tournaments is now also bringing green to their company outlook.
For anyone who is concerned with the planet they know what it takes to make paper, the loss of perfectly healthy trees, the pollution of the fuel that will transport the trees to the paper mill and then add to that the amount of power that will be used and chemicals to produce paper.
Once this paper is produced and companies use them to mail customers their bills along with other literature using ink that has chemicals and that will all eventually end up in a dump someplace. Then add to that the fuel that was used to carry this mail to millions of homes. It all adds up to a lot of pollution when each step is looked at and combined.
To stop this vicious cycle one satellite company has stood up and said no more and that company is Direct Tv that has gone green.
Now they offer customers paperless billing, email updates on their services and an auto bill pay for those who choose it, plus there is a $20.00 incentive to go green with the satellite company.
This might not sound like a large dent in the environment but when everything is totaled up and then multiplied by millions it is a big enough dent that if other companies followed in their path the environment would be better for it.
