Finally I cancelled all subscriptions and so from now I won't be receiving unnecessary marketing materials. Too bad there are still many companies who are distributing their materials anonymously - they print them in hundreds of thousands and you can't just cancel your subscription.

Well this was strange. Ecochallenge in the Covid-19 times was certainly different from the one last year, for example. Nevertheless, I found it very refreshing that there were new categories that focused on, for example, mental health and well-being.
