Waste paper

I have just recieved a delivery of six individual envelopes all with advertising literature from a well known legal training organisation. It was some sort of special delivery as a little man came in a van to deliver them to me. All of the six envelopes and their contents have gone straight into the bin.

This is such a waste of resources. I can't help feeling that, with the availability of electronic communication which wastes less trees, there should be some sort of limit on this sort of paper advertising.
