poisonous gases and dangerous chemicals from industrial smoke stacks in order to clean the air in our living environment

Stamp collecting is the collecting of postage stamps and related objects, such as envelopes or packages with stamps
on them. It is one of the worlds most popular hobbies, with estimates of the number of collectors ranging up to 20 million
in the United States alone.
Many casual collectors enjoy accumulating stamps without worrying about the tiny details, but the creation of a large
or comprehensive collection generally requires some philatelic knowledge. This is especially important for those who
intend to spend large amounts for stamps.
Stamp collectors are an important source of revenue for some small countries that create limited runs of elaborate
stamps designed mainly to be bought by stamp collectors. The stamps produced by these countries far exceed the postal
needs of the countries.
Some collectors, observing the generally rising prices of rare stamps, have taken to Philatelic Investment. Rare stamps
are among the most portable of tangible investments, and are easy to store. They offer an attractive alternative to art, other
collectible investments, and precious metals.

C. 10 million
