Use green wrapping instead of virgin paper


Use green wrapping instead of virgin paper
The Issue
Wrapping purchased gifts with virgin paper is an antiquated and unhealthy practice nowadays. If every American decided to go paper-free (for just three gifts), we’d save around 47,000 football fields’ worth of wrapping paper.
More practical choices include wrapping items in cloth--using scarves, guest or kitchen towels, t-shirts and even socks. Outdated newspapers especially the cartoon section or maps work well too. Celebrate and enjoy holidays in a fun eco-friendly way.
