Make A Promise To Save The Environment In Your Own Way And Get 500GB File Hosting Account For Free


You may be interested in our latest giveaway where you can Make A Promise To Save The Environment In Your Own Way And Get 500GB File Hosting Account For Free

Climate change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather over periods of time that range from decades to millions of years. If we do nothing to stop it, climate change will cause severe water shortages, rising sea levels will swallow cities, and pest outbreaks will sicken people and kill crops. One of the early signs we are already experiencing is an increase in extreme weather events such as destructive storms, drought and floods.

SmashingApps and FileBanker are teaming up to do their part for the environment. Average American consumes more than 700 pounds of paper per year, highest compared to anywhere else in the world.  Hundreds of thousands of trees are cut down per day to support the consumption of paper that can be easily avoided.

SmashingApps believes that we can change that by helping people save and share their documents electronically instead of printing them out each time.  We do not want you to print so much so we are offering 500 GB file hosting accounts for free at FileBanker. You will need to enter “smashingapps” in the promo code field. You can use these accounts to share all your documents without ever having to print anything.

I promise never to buy another printer again.

We have replaced all our light bulbs with energy efficient bulbs.
Caulked every opening we could find. But, the biggest energy saving was I installed a pellet stove and added a thermostat.

In the Northwest it use to be a wash as far as the cost for electric heat and pellets. Now, pellets, if used wisely, will do a nice job of keeping the dollar bills back in your wallet.

Our bill was lowered by about quarter with these simple things to do.

Thanks

Who are filebanker.com? Are they the same as fileshaker.com, filesavr.com ,filedropper.com ? Are they not a dodgy outfit? Why are the details on their website so sparse?

I don’t think I’d trust them with anything, based on the look of their website and the lack of any specifics.
