It seems like there’s a new phonebook on my door step every other day. Sure this is an exaggeration, but do we really need another copy of the Yellow Pages, or some company’s latest take on the white pages when the Internet tends to be more up to date? My immediate response to a new phone book is to dump it in my curbside recycle bin, but I’d rather avoid getting a phonebook altogether. Eliminating pointless phonebook deliveries would be great for the environment, reducing a ton of wasted paper, eliminating the gas used by phonebook delivery contractors who cruise neighborhoods unloading the books from a car that typically idles (or crawls down the road) all day long. Olivia Zaleski provides 6 ways to eliminate the phonebook from your life (or at least reduce the delivery frequency).
Remember, with free information services like 800-GOOG-411, even if you don’t have an Internet connection handy, you can get connected to the phone numbers you need without needing a phonebook.
