Yes, I would like to save some time, please.
I venture a wild guess that this ad works a lot better than asking people to sign up just to plant the $1 worth of tree. (Of course, it doesn’t hurt that there’s a significant overlap between the iPad-carrying and tree-planting subspecies of the typical Brooklynite.)
What the ad doesn’t mention is how much money ConEd saves by not having to send out paper bills. But that’s just as well. Even utilities are allowed to make a profit every now and then.
