Paperless Please is the Campaign for Paperless Mail
Welcome to Paperless Please, a first-of-its-kind campaign that seeks to provide a new choice in how we send, receive, and access postal mail...mail that is currently being delivered on paper. This will be accomplished via Zumbox, the world's first paperless postal system. Indeed, this campaign is supported and powered by Zumbox.
The Paperless Please campaign and online community is designed to empower people with ways to lobby for, demand, and politely request paperless mail delivery. It is driven by demand and an open dialog about how we can improve the mail system and experience. It is a bottom-up approach to converting the paper mail stream to a paperless form for the sake of convenience, security, and ultimately our environment.
Whereas having a registered Zumbox is passive and reactive--you're ready to receive and respond to paperless mail--joining the Paperless Please campaign is a proactive step toward making paperless mail a reality. You can invite your friends and family to join, promote the campaign across the social web, and make direct Paperless Please requests to the companies and organizations that send you paper mail. This is the start of the paperless movement, and we will continue to expand it in the coming weeks and months.
Today, the campaign starts with you, the People. It will quickly expand to include all of those who send and receive paper mail. It will include those who send you bills, statements, catalogs, donation requests, restaurant menus, newspapers, magazines, government mail, and much more. We've designed the campaign such that everyone has a seat at the table. Everyone has a voice and can be involved. Because when postal mail goes paperless, we gain unparalleled control over the mail we send and receive. When postal mail goes entirely digital, we're freed from the constraints of the physical world. The result is a new world of possibilities.
Thank you for joining the campaign. Please let us know your thoughts in the comments.
