Can getting your porn online save the world?

The Bite:
We know you aren't into porn. But your "friends" can save paper and plastic by feeding their fetishes via this neat, new doohickey called the internets. (The rest of us can get our PG-rated magazines, movies, and music online.)
The Benefits: 
  • Saving paper and plastic. Currently, less than 5% of paper used to produce magazines is recycled, and most DVD and CD cases are made from hard-to-recycle PVC or polystyrene.
  • Instant gratification. Downloading the new Amy Winehouse album takes 99% less effort than a trip to the record store.
  • Downloading costs less. It costs $5 less to download season three of Lost compared to buying the DVD, and you won't have to wait until the DVD's released in December to watch it.
Personally Speaking: 
Our parents read this email each day. We're pleading the fifth.
Wanna Try: 
  • Zinio - subscribe and flip through mags on your computer.
  • iTunes - an easy place to start downloading MP3s and TV episodes. Go here to plant trees for free when you buy music ($1-$2).
  • CinemaNow - rent or buy from this library of 4,000 movies.
  • SecondSpin - if you gotta go retro, buy CDs used.

Cocktail Fact

The porn site F*** for Forest has raised more than $100,000 for rainforests. Not even kidding.

Bang For The Bite

If 10,000 "friends" of Biters get off online instead of buying a nonrecycled porn mag, we'll save 67 trees.

I get this tiffany and co from my grandmother when she passed, but I would like to know if it’s definitely real, how can I do this? I saw lots of my favorite movie stars wearing tiffany & co, so I’d love to have one too.
