Green by the Numbers: Go paperless Arbor Day tree donation

ComEd is encouraging customers to go paperless. If every customer enrolled in the online billing service:

  • Paper consumption would be reduced by 1,344,000 pounds
  • 13,000 trees would be saved
  • Carbon dioxide emissions from paper processing would be reduced by 3,399,000 pounds
3,399,000 pounds less carbon dioxide emissions is equivalent to three hundred less automobiles on the road. Promoting e-Bill and direct debit is part of ComEd's 12 Ways to Green program. For every one hundred customers who sign up for the e-Bill and direct debit program, ComEd will donate one tree to the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois.

Each month, ConEd features steps customers can take to live greener, save energy and reduce their carbon footprint. ComEd customers can visit ComEd's 12 Ways to Green to learn how to reduce energy for both home and business. For home, get a breakdown of your energy use, learn easy ways to save energy, and buy discounted energy-saving products. For business, get a customized energy use analysis and learn energy-saving strategies. ComEd hosts Ask the Energy Doctor. Email a how-to lower your electricity bill by reducing energy use question, and the doctor will get back to you with an answer.
