I just want to share some quick facts for those who are trying to "live green" through this holiday season.

Let's start with finding a green Christmas Tree. Is it more green to have a real Christmas tree or a plastic one?

Comparing a locally grown live cut-tree to a full size plastic tree, they found that the real tree used about a fifth of the energy (assuming that the plastic tree would be used for ten years). The problem is compounded when considering that most artificial trees are made from environmentally toxic PVC." Source
