KMUCC Green Team Tips for a Green Holiday Season
• A real Christmas tree – but if you have an artificial one already, keep using it
• Use LED lights
• Buy less – and buy eco-friendly items including non-object gifts like planned experiences, planting trees, charity donations
• Make your own holiday cards and ornaments
• Connect with Nature
• Choose eco-friendly wrapping paper, even the comics from the newspaper
• Don’t forget the food – sustainable and tasty, with minimal waste. Love leftovers.
• Calculate your carbon footprint, using a carbon footprint calculator like the one the University of California, Berkeley offers on its website.
