With Global warming threatening to change Life on Earth for ever, we have to change our habits and come up with lifestyles that support sustainability on the planet. To this end, we are set to reduce our plastic waste and replace oil with green energy; but what about the holidays? It has been estimated that in Britain alone, the Christmas and New Year holiday season accounts for two tones of extra rubbish. You can do the math for the rest of the world.
So, aren’t there ways we can make Xmas a greener holiday? How about going the extra mile this year and planting instead of buying a tree at Christmas? In the true spirit of the season, we’ll be giving new life to forests while we treat our family and friends to a fun day trip! The best Xmas present for our changing times! Heart warming and.. wrapping free!
Feel free to share your ideas for a ‘greener’ Xmas and, if you feel like going on to plant a tree this holiday season, do tell us how it went!
