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.

Climate Change is a global issue and adapting green habits is good for the environment, but who knew it can get us great deals too. Here are some great environmental benefits for us if we always remember these to follow in our daily life.
- Turn off lights, computers and other appliances when not in use.
- Use compact fluorescent light bulbs to save money and energy.
- Plant trees to shade your home.
- Use solar power for home and water heating.
- Ask your employer to consider flexible work schedules or telecommuting.
- Install a low-flow shower head.
- Copy and print on both sides of paper.
- Unplug seldom used appliances.
- Use e-mail instead of paper correspondence.
- Buy products that you can reuse.
- Buy rechargeable batteries for devices used frequently.
- Buy the right amount of paint for the job.
- Use a ceramic coffee mug instead of a disposable cup.
All you have to do to get your free 500 GB file hosting accounts is to suggest that how to stop Climate Change by going Green and make a promise to follow this. When giving your suggestion and making a promise please post a link to this post. You can make it in any of the following ways…

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

My promise is to scan all my receiving documents into my server so accounting can look at and send to our audtiors. Cutting us back from making copies and sending in the mail.
I promise to never ever leave the lights of the house on if I don’t need ‘em, put the brightness of the monitor on low, and get rid of my printer for good!!!
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.
i promised to to turn off lights, computers and other appliances when not in use. (although I have already done it for years) in my house in sunny Spain. Juana Corbalán
