Say "No" to ATM Receipts



So you want to become more eco-friendly, but haven't figured out how to convert your car to run on restaurants' used fryer oil? Not to worry, there are little things you can do in your day-to-day life to help preserve the environment. One such way is saying "no" to ATM receipts.

Thrown on the ground almost as much as gum wrappers, ATM receipts are one of the biggest sources of litter on the planet. If all the ATM users in the U.S. stopped getting receipts for one year, we would save over two billion feet worth of paper, which is enough to wrap around the equator fifteen times. Imagine that!
