Description

Is there such a thing as green wrapping paper or eco-friendly holiday cards? Join hosts Tiff and Kat on this sleigh ride of an episode to learn the answer, and how to avoid becoming 25% more wasteful during the holiday season. They discuss DIY wrapping paper and holiday cards, or if you ain't got time for that, more eco-friendly options from the store. And learn how to lumberjack it up by cutting down your holiday tree from a U.S. national forest in this zany sustainability podcast!
