Continuing our Less Waste for the Holidays series, we thought we’d share this GREAT resource from Keep America Beautiful crammed full of ideas to help you reduce waste this season. This resource helps you more fully realize the environmental footprint of your holiday party.
Americans throw away 25-43% more trash between the Thanksgiving and New Year’s holiday period.
Keep America Beautiful
It is very easy to lose track of waste, especially when most of us are in the habit of “trash it and forget it.” It usually doesn’t catch up with us until that day of the week that we roll our cart to the curb and notice that the lid won’t shut. From decorations, to wrapping paper, to additional food waste – it can really add up.
This is why we are happy to share Keep America Beautiful’s Keep the Holidays Beautiful resource with you. this downloadable resource can be wonderful “food for thought” as you plan your holiday gatherings.
Stay tuned into our blog this November and December for more small ways you can reduce waste around your holiday traditions.
