Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year—well, maybe not according to environmentalists. Along with love and magic, the holiday season often comes with not eco-friendly decor, consumerism, and lots of trash. Let’s look at some ways the holiday season negatively impacts the environment and discuss how you can have a green Christmas this year.
Decorations End Up in Landfills
Paper snowflakes and ornaments and tinsel, during the Christmas season, there is no shortage of disposable decorations. Most stores ramp up their holiday marketing ahead of Christmas, just begging customers to indulge in the latest and greatest holiday-themed items to bring holiday cheer into their homes. Many of these items are not made to last, meaning only a year or two on your tree or walls before being tossed in the trash.
If your decoration is not compostable or recyclable (which includes almost all plastic items), it will head straight to the landfill to pollute the planet. From there, its components can leach into and contaminate the soil or make its way into the environment, negatively affecting wildlife.
When purchasing your Christmas decorations this year, think about how long your new item will last. Stick to decorations that are not only adorable but reusable. If you decide not to reuse an item, consider donating it, not trashing it.
Single-Use Wrapping Paper Galore
Are gifts really gifts without wrapping? That might be up for debate, but one thing is not—wrapping paper creates a lot of waste. Many times, wrapping paper is used once only to be torn apart and tossed in the trash. An easy way to reduce waste and green your Christmas celebrations is to use reused or reusable gift wrap. Using old newspaper is an easy way to accomplish this. Or you can impress your friends and family by wrapping their gifts in the beautiful fabric wrapping method.
Turning Up the Heat Is Not Good for the Planet
According to the EPA, the energy used in the average house is responsible for twice as many greenhouse gas emissions as the average car. You can reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global warming and shrink your personal carbon footprint by using less energy at home.
The good news is that, with recycling Christmas plastic decorations, plastic packaging bags and single-Use wrapping paper, which can be made into Wood Plastic Composite materials, you can have an earth-friendly Christmas. You can also use WPC materials to build your house to reduce energy consumption.
Why are WPC materials so magical?
WPC material is a new type of eco-friendly and energy-saving composite material that is made from wood fibers and recycled plastic, substitute for wood. WPC material is also recyclable, you can recycle it after use. It has all the features of green environmental protection as well as sustainable development.
Promote plastic recycling
In the building and construction industry, Wood Plastic Composite materials play an important role in recycling plastics. WPC products made with recycled plastic gives new life to plastic waste. The recycled plastics can be made into wood plastic composites, which are used for things like decking, park benches, and playground equipment, etc.
Recycling these plastic wastes to WPC products helps to keep large amounts of plastic out of landfills. It also helps to reduce the amount of plastic washing into the ocean as these plastics are being given a second useful lease on life.
Reduce energy consumption
WPC materials can substitute for wood and decrease deforestation, the saved trees absorb carbon dioxide, therefore help to trap the carbon contained in one of the principal greenhouse gases and reduce global warming, which has significant benefits for the environment.
Reducing tropical deforestation can significantly lower global warming emissions and—together with efforts to reduce emissions from fossil fuels—plays an integral role in a comprehensive long-term solution to global warming.
The use of wood plastic composites prevents the deforestation, saves forest and petroleum resources, promote plastic recycling and protect the environment.
