Green Holidays - the discussion

December started today and it's time to see how we can make the holidays greener. Eco-Libris blog will bring you this month tips, ideas and thoughts that will hopefully inspire us all to enjoy joyous holidays, but with a smaller impact on the environment.

A good place to start with is the discussion about the concept of green holidays, which I found in a very interesting article on the New York Times last Sunday. Alex Williams brought in this article (
Jolly and Green, With an Agenda) many aspects of what can be done and how it should be done to make the holidays greener.

This article shows you the progress that green thinking has made toward mainstream America. It also shows you what a long road is ahead of us before the majority will embrace green and make it inseparable from the holidays.

So check it out. Definitely a mind-provoking
article (btw - you will find a book mentioned in the article that was reviewed here a couple of days ago). And don't forget to follow our blog this month for more posts on green holidays.

Yours,
Raz @ Eco-Libris
