This holiday season, take care of the planet and the people you love. đ Here are some low-impact holiday tips:
đ Make lists of your gifts and meals to avoid over-consumption and waste of food. Even better: ask for a wish list or opt for a gift card to somewhere they love.
đ§¶Be creative by making your holiday decorations with materials already in the house.
đ Shop local! Not only does supporting local help your community, but it also means you are reducing the environmental impact of long distance deliveries.
đČ Donât send your tree to the dump after Christmas! It will decompose without oxygen and produce more methane, which is far more damaging than CO2. Instead, chop it up for a campfire or let it rot down on your property to provide habitat for wildlife and feed your garden.
đ Make your own wrapping and if you can, avoid any form of plastic.
đ Give EXPERIENCES! Things like tickets to shows or concerts, visits to museums or an art gallery, and massage/manicure/pedicure are a classic zero-waste gift option.
đȘ Canât go wrong with baked goods! Cook your friend some delicious cookies, cakes and desserts. Make sure to wrap them up in a plastic-free container.
