90% Reduction of Texting = 67% smaller Carbon Footprint

So Meghan and Marissa were so excited today, when they both revealed that they have been helping the environment by lowering their Carbon Footprint!  Each of them texted less in the last 30 days, and in fact lowered their texting by 90% compared to the previous month! 

(I don't think that the switching of their unlimited phone plan to a pre-paid phone plan paid by them had anything to do with the reduction of texting either).

Meghan lowered her texts this month from 2000 to only 200!  And Marissa lowered her from 3000+ last month to about 300 this month! That's a 90% reduction from each of them!

And by all accounts, that equals a 67% smaller carbon footprint from our household!  Yeah!  Now we don't have to feel bad about throwing away all those batteries we have been holding waiting to take to the battery recycler bin. 

Since our carbon footprint has been lowered, we can just throw them in the trash now and be even!  Thanks Marissa and Meghan!! 

Now, were are those batteries? The remote needs new ones!
