Green Christmas!!!NOT

LOTS of wrapping and packaging are thrown out after Christmas!!! I will confess, we filled THREE plastic bin bags!!! How can we reduce this?
  1. ask for money instead of pressies
  2. ask for a charity donation on your behalf
  3. recycle any pacaging that does manage to get into your home
  4. buy low-packaged presents for young children who will not accept charity donations

Here are some eco friendly pressie ideas for next year:

  1. reycycled paper stationary
  2. Charity donations
  3. virtual gifts (iTunes tokens ect.)
  4. hand made items

These gifts (should) be welcomed by even the most plastic loving people!

N.B. put a note in the (reycycled) envelope if you decide to give money saying to please spend it on something eco friendly!
