How to Have a Green Christmas
Parties. Use metal flatware and real glasses and dishes —especially if you own an Energy Star-certified dishwasher, says Jenny Powers of the Natural Resources Defense Council. If you're using disposable plates, pick recyclable paper, not plastic or Styrofoam. Use cloth tablecloths instead of throwaways. Then wash them in cold water to save energy. See all-laundry .com/environment.asp for more tips. And if you need a new party outfit, check out treehugger.com for suggestions on how to "green" your wardrobe. Then kick back and toast the holidays with a glass of (organic) champagne.

Comment: I have an agreeable laugh... "stupidity" makes excellent and valid points... that said, nixxynoxxy, I agree with you and the article too. It is certainly positive to reduce our impact on the environment and live more sustainable lives. Yes, all of us "little" people using "little" energy individually seems so small in relation to the "big guys" who are often hypecrytical... even so, one person does make a difference!

Comment: Stupidity- this article simply suggests how one can help the environment this holiday season by switching it up. it's by no means an attack on you and how you celebrate your Christmas. I hope some day soon there will be more sporting events during the day and wind and solar power every where, but the suggestions in this article are just a start. Lighten up, be happy, be Green.
