Green Your Christmas Holidays

Eco Friendly Ornaments

Eco Friendly Ornaments

There are many creative ways to have an earth-friendly Christmas. Whether you string popcorn or recycle your Christmas tree, there are many ways to have an eco-friendly Christmas.

Instead of buying multiple gifts that are often unwanted and unused, try an unconventional gift idea. You can give an acre of rainforest, a flock of chicks or even a cow.

Question consumption and spend quality time with family and friends. That’s what the holidays are all about.

How to Have a Green Christmas

  • Make Your Own Decorations String popcorn for garland on the tree
  • Instead of exchanging gifts Give to their favourite charity on their behalf
  • Wrap Gifts with Newspaper Use magazines and newspaper instead of wrapping paper
  • Old Greeting Cards Reuse old Christmas cards to make gift tags
  • Buy an organic turkey or better yet, Tofurkey
  • Replace holiday lights with LEDS and shut them off at night
  • Regift Pass that gift around until it finds a happy home
  • Send e-cards E-cards are free and paperless
  • Shop On-line Convenient, avoid line ups and one less car on the road
  • Use an artificial tree or recycle a real one
    • Share/Bookmark
