With little less than 7 days until December arrives
Christmas is only around the corner meaning that thoughts are already turning
to preparations for gifts, cards and decorations.
Each festive season there are always new takes on the old
Christmas traditions, modern and contemporary decorations, colour schemes and
themes.
Whatever your take on this festive season, it is likely you
will still be upholding the old school tradition of a Christmas tree in your
home or office and will find yourself confronted with the choice between a
fresh, real tree or an artificial plastic version.
Artificial Christmas trees first appeared in the 1930’s and
since then their appearance has become more widespread, however, what most
people don’t realise though is that the best choice is always the most natural,
and here’s why:
-
Cycle of
life – Real Christmas trees are grown on farms in crops to maintain a
constant, steady supply so while many people do believe purchasing a real tree
can cause harm to the environment it actually supports the growth of the
industry contributing to the cycle of life that can improve our environment.
This happens because each tree absorbs CO2 and other gases emitting
oxygen as nature’s natural filtration system.
-
Recyclable
– Landfills are faced with a shortage of space, with this in mind a real
Christmas tree can be disposed of and used a mulch to replenish soil, create
habitats and fuel while fake plastic Christmas trees have no further use once
they are rubbish, do not disintegrate and will fill landfill space.
-
Scent
– A real Christmas tree can bring a fresh scent of balsalm fir to your home
which cannot be replicated and adds to that Christmassy feel and comfort often
missing at Christmas time. If you’re having guests over for the holidays, give
them that fresh ambience.
-
Unique
– Because real Christmas trees are grown naturally they are all individual
meaning that even though you may decorate your tree with ornaments that feel
individual to you, your tree will be like no one else’s either, in height,
width or stature. Go as large or as small as you want.
