A Sustainable Christmas – Tricks to Be Greener During the Holidays

Christmas is the time to be with the family, share moments, and enjoy the illusion of the little ones. But they are also days of high consumption and that also means that we generate much more waste than usual. If you want this Christmas to be more ecological and reduce the presence of the omnipresent plastic, follow these tips.

1. CHOOSE A NATURAL TREE WITH ROOTS

If you have a garden to plant the Christmas tree, buying a natural tree can be a good option although it is very difficult for them to survive the holidays (due to the heat inside the houses). Do you want to go one step further?

2. GET OUT YOUR BEST CHINA

At Christmas, the whole clan gets together and maybe that’s when we realize how big our family is. If the celebration is at home, take out the best dishes you have, and do not use disposable dishes. You don’t have services for everyone? Mix, you will give it a personal and totally authentic touch. Unmatched!

3. ECO-FRIENDLY SINGLE-USE TABLEWARE

If you still bet on single-use tableware because you don’t want to spend the whole evening putting in the dishwasher, at Amazon you will find biodegradable palm dishes that are much more sustainable than plastic ones.

4. ORIGINAL PACKAGING
