HOLIDAY EXCESS
From Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day, household waste increases by more than 25%. Added food waste, shopping bags, packaging, wrapping paper, bows and ribbons—it all adds up to an additional one million tons a week in the nation's garbage piles. Source: Reduce.org
BE MINDFUL OF FOOD WASTE The holiday season means even more wasted food. Save money, water, and reduce your greenhouse gas emissions by wasting less. Practice smart shopping by planning your meals ahead of time, buying only what you need and eating what you buy. Send leftovers home with dinner guests, get creative with recipes that use leftovers, and compost your food scraps. Learn more food-saving tips at fcgov.com/saveyourfood.
USE LEDS AND TIMERS FOR LIGHTS
BE THOUGHTFUL WITH GIFT GIVING
BE CREATIVE WITH GIFT WRAPPING
Put holiday lights on timers. Leaving holiday lights on for 24 hours will quadruple energy costs and produce four times more pollution than necessary! Set a timer to turn the lights on at dusk and off when you go to bed.
Give gifts with a smaller eco-footprint, with minimal packaging, made from recycled materials or produced locally. Give the gift of recycling with a $5 entry certificate to the Hard-to-Recycle Materials Yard at the Timberline Recycling Center, fcgov.com/trc.
Wrap your gifts in style and save money and paper. Reuse fun paper such as maps, comics, posters or calendars. Or go reusable with colorful fabric scraps or a gift bag.
