Smart Christmas tree recycling and replanting is a great way to kick off your sustainable-living New Year's resolutions.
Recycling programs for live cut Christmas trees have greatly expanded in the past couple of decades, and more cities and counties offer — and even prefer — pickup or drop-off recycling programs over stuffing discarded trees into trash bins or cluttering up the curb. Trees can clog garbage truck compactors or crowd landfills before a slow decomposition.
The National Christmas Tree Association expected roughly 46.9% of American households to buy a Christmas tree in 2021. All told, we probably spent $6.1 billion on some form of festive evergreen this year, paying an average of $83.39 for each real tree and $118.08 for each artificial tree. iframe.twitter-tweet { width: 100% !important; } Read: New York will restrict gas for cooking and heating, paving the way for more cities to follow
Tree recycling/mulching programs: Check with your local department of public works or park service for information. These departments often chip and shred the trees, then make the mulch available for use in your garden. Mulch itself is a natural weed suppressant that cuts down on chemical use. Community-minded Soil erosion barriers: Some communities use Christmas trees to make effective sand and soil erosion barriers, especially for lake and river shoreline stabilization and river delta sedimentation management.
