Today’s Tip from The Green Year: 365 Small Things You Can Do to Make a Big Difference: Plan one big holiday party.
“Let your family and friends know that your Christmas gift to the planet is a smaller carbon footprint and suggest a single holiday party. Make plans to get together on one day to celebrate the season.
It might take a little more planning to host a single gathering, but the impact on the environment will be huge: If 20 people in every state cut out a 10 mile car trip once a week, it would prevent more than 64,000 pounds of pollutants from being released into the air.
No matter how many holiday parties you attend this year, be sure to carpool.”
