WWF International - "A happy holiday for you & the planet! 🎄" 2021

 

The holidays are all about spending time with our loved ones and spreading joy, so it makes sense that we carve out some of that cheer for our planet too!

OUR AMBITION | OUR WORK | GET INVOLVED The holidays are all about spending time with our loved ones and spreading joy, so it makes sense that we carve out some of that cheer for our planet too! And the good news is that it's really easy to do. Here are five ways you can make your holiday season a little more sustainable this year: Consider gifting your time or a pre-bought experience instead of an object. That reduces the demand for physical resources. When shopping, bring your own reusable bag. That helps reduce your consumption of single-use plastic – a gift to our rivers and oceans! Wrapping paper is one of the biggest holiday wastes, so why not try wrapping your presents in brown or recycled paper instead. Did you know we throw away a third of all the food we produce? Try cutting food waste by planning ahead and being realistic about how much food you need. Opt for gifts with less packaging. Shopping local can help. Every decision we make is a vote for the world we want to create. So we hope our tips on how to make your festivities friendlier to our planet, our one shared home, are useful.
