Let us see a Green Post Office

Here is a great idea. I wish I would of been the one that thought of it. But I will share it with you and then you can share it with who you know and so on. Let us make this idea snowball. It will make for a healthier Canada. I feel a great passion to have this message read.
Canada is a country in which I was born and raised and I have children and grand children living in. and they will continue after I pass. This is life; our country Canada, is a precious place and I want, like every one else, a cleanlier Earth.
The idea, is that Canada Post could remove off the roads, their vehicles. They have areas of delivery that could be done on foot. Actually, a lot of areas that could be done by foot. About ten or 15 years ago, they put hundreds of right hand vehicles on the road and carriers that where foot soldiers became drivers.
For an example, in one depot alone in Alberta had 50 vehicles brought in to do the jobs that letter carriers use to do. Now I don’t know the exact stats., but I beleive if these areas alone where change to foot carriers, think of the gas alone that would be saved. Think of the loss of harmful gases in our air.
One other thing is removing their customer mailboxes. You know those community boxes that where brought in to care for new communities. Most people drive up to these boxes leave their car or truck running, get out and retrieve their mail. Then they get back in their vehicle and drive off.
See where I am going with this. If these where removed and put delivery on foot, how much more cleaner our air would be and the saving on gas.
Canada needs to embrace this idea and since our Post Office if still government owned and our government wants to save our planet. They know they need to start at home. This would give every Canadian an example to follow and our Canada would stay as beautiful, as we want it to be. We as Canadian citizens are paying these gas bills for these vehicles and we breathe this air.
So Canada Post, please embrace this mandate to ‘ Go Green ‘. Let us have a Green Post and show the rest of the world how we are serious about saving our planet and let us get those vehicles off the road and employ foot carriers to deliver our letters and parcels.
Green Post, Green Post, green post, sounds good eh?
Please, Please, Please Let us go Green. Each who reads this post share this idea and let us as Canadians ask for Canada Post to go Green, if we all agree we can make this change happen.
This is almost like a cry for help. Our planet needs us and needs us Now. Do not just think about it, but let us have our voices heard. Let us get those vehicles off the road and NOW.
Here is a page Canada Post published on a website “go green with your mail’ and at the bottom you can ‘Contact us ‘. click on this link and say. “I am Canadian, and I’m here to help. I am really grateful to the management of Canada Post for their struggle to ‘go green’. Please hear our suggestion, where ever you can remove gas vehicles and use foot soldiers.
