Hi guys, its amaxing how many people feel that a green email is offensive, whilst the other half feel it is an insignificant reminder to think about the planet prior to printing an email. The green disclaimer is not a new fad and nor is people sub concious telling them to make a logical decision. Not printing pages is counter-productive because no doubt you are driving a short distance or taking that extra plastic bag that harms our oceans. Such mixed emotions about the green email disclaimer, so much so, mine reads. Thinking of priniting an email, donate a dollar!

You do not have to copy the picture or jpeg to get this signature. To get the tree icon, change your font to webdings. It is a Capital “P” in webdings. Then just change to the color to green and change the font back.

An interesting perspective, Mozza. I have no proof that it works, nor do I claim to offer one here. Perhaps we are preaching to the converted.

I would offer that if it keeps one from printing the email then an extra line or three makes little difference in an email.

But I do concede that I’ve seen some more polite ways to phrase the request since publishing this, such as, “Please consider the environment before printing this email.”

Since you’re asking for comments – I came here because I’m looking for evidence that it works. It strikes me as silly (and a tad patronizing) since I can’t imagine someone deciding not to print because of this warning. It also looks counterproductive since it makes every email longer by 2-3 lines, which is sometimes enough to overflow into the next page. The sender feels good and superior, but the environment does not benefit – this is how we get a bad name.

I came across this while looking for a green email signature and/or group to promote re: the same at the bottom of my email.

I’ve noticed that MANY of the signatures have the little tree/path picture, and since I didn’t know who “owned” that I didn’t use it. Mine simply says “consider the enviornment before printing this email. Reduse, recycle, reuse.”

thanks for the blog!!

Hello.

As you said, nobody really knows how to get that signature straight from the search box.

I’ve had to search a lot of blogs to get this.

Silla!
