It’s 16 days before Christmas, and I’m sure by now, many of you have already Christmas trees in your homes. Do you get a real tree or those artificial ones?
When my mom was much younger, she would always make her own Christmas trees. Sometimes she would get a real one, other times, she would create a replica of a tree full of snow (soap suds, really). About 10 years ago, she resigned to putting up the same green plastic Christmas tree year after year, and adorn it with different balls or colored-paraphernalia each year.
However, according to the American National Association of Christmas Tree Growers, although artificial Christmas trees are more convenient, “real†trees are better for the environment.
They came up with this chart that shows Christmas tree preferences since 2002.
