GREEN TIP #3 GREENER GIFT WRAPPING

In the U.S., 4 million tons of trash is made through gift wrap and shopping bags. Consider these creative and green gift wrap alternatives :

· Newspapers, which can be left plain or decorated.

· Fabric, such as scarves, handkerchiefs, bandanas or tea towels, which themselves are a present too!

· Old art projects, which highlight your artistic prowess!

· Natural evergreens, berries, dried flowers instead of ribbons and bows. Keep them as decorations or compost them after the gifts are unwrapped.

· When purchasing wrapping paper, look for those that are marked as recyclable and biodegradable. Be sure to remove any tape before recycling or composting!

***Just a reminder, for classroom holiday parties, please consider reusable or compostable plates, napkins and cutlery!***

Thank you for helping our World stay clean. We wish you a wonderful holiday season!
