Making a Statement - How much "green" are you saving?

by Ron Daly 

Happy Earth Day, everybody! Here's hoping you carpooled to work, you're recycling all your soda cans, and you've changed all your light bulbs to those cool curvy ones. Most of all, we hope your credit union is offering electronic statements and documents to save money and save trees. 

You're curious. How many trees am I actually saving? The answer might surprise you. It takes a lot of paper to create those mailed statements that go out at the beginning of the month, and given your number of members receiving two, three, and four sheets of paper per month, the number of trees you can save with eStatements ever year can be quite surprising - not to mention the costs you're saving by encouraging members to go green by going paperless.
