Christmas fills us with joy and brings us closer to our loved ones, it’s a fact. But wouldn’t it be even more beautiful if we spent it in a way that shows that we love and respect the environment as well?
Ecological actions – 5 Tips & tricks
❯ Turn off the lights. Create a romantic, nostalgic atmosphere with candles. Caution! Paraffin candles are made from petroleum and are not good for your health, and therefore for the environment. Choose candles made from soy or beeswax are more environmentally friendly as they are biodegradable – perfect idea for eco gifts too.
❯ Use towels on the table. Do not use napkins or kitchen paper on the table, but cloth towels that you can wash and reuse.
❯ Give away leftovers. Portion them and give them to your guests on their way out.
❯ Ornaments can come directly from nature. Decorate your tree with pine cones, cinnamon sticks, etc. You can also use edible decorations such as lollipops.
❯ Shop local stores. By buying products from neighborhood shops you will support local shopkeepers and their families, thus helping the development of the local market.
Shopping list- Think eco
