Esquire – Not So Green?
Or, more likely, clumsy HTML. If you go to Esquire.com, at the bottom right of the page, next to the Hearst Men's Network, is a link to "Being Green". However, if you click on the link, you get a "404 - Object not found!" error, which is awesome and ironic in the same way that www.sarahpalin.com used to say something about intentionally blank" (not anymore, alas, the Election Time Capsule link rot has begun).
After some Googling, I found the "Being Green" website and it's linked here for your reference. Seems they do have a commitment to the environment after all.

Sending Junk Mail to the Credit Card Companies
A recent NY Times Op-Ed had the turn of phrase, "Credit-card offers came in the mail like confetti" and I chuckled.
Every time a credit card application comes in the mail, I shred it and fill the "No Postage Necessary" envelopes with the shreddies and send it back. I wouldn't say I'm proud of this, but every time I do it, I giggle my motherfucking ass off. If I'm feeling especially cheeky, I fill the envelope with other household detritus like old keys or screws.
I don't think I'm doing anything in the war on junk mail, but it is cathartic. Besides, I don't think you can recycle the shreddies without them blowing all over the street on trash day.

Turning Landfills into Parks
I grew up playing youth soccer on fields that were built on top of landfills so the idea to turn Staten Islands' landfills into parks seems OK to me.
