Christmas is a time of great joy but it can also lead to over-consumption.Here's how to cut
back on unnecessary purchases (and help save the planet in the process.
Get an eco-friendly tree
Having a Christmas tree at home has been a British tradition since the 1700s and we fill our
homes with around 8 million a year.But we know plastic trees pollute the planet and cutting
down a two-metrc tree can produce up to 16 kg of CO.when it rots in landfill according to the
Carbon Trust.But there is an alternative.You can rent a tree from Eco-Elf who deliver it to your
door,and then colleets it after Christmas to replant it in their UK forests.
Give gifts that make new memories
There's so much pressure to buy friends.family,colleagues,or neighbours a gift at this
time of year.But in fact around f42 million worth of Christmas presents aren't wanted and end
up in dustbins each year,which is not eco-friendly.Chances are your loved ones would rather
spend more time with you than have more gifts.You could either book an experience together
like a cooking class or a boat trip;organise a nature treasure hunt or go bird-watching;or share
a skill you have with them like fixing their bike.
