A study published by a consulting firm in Montreal was published last year around the holidays – attempting to answer the question of whether it’s “better” to get a real tree or an artificial tree. I repost my response here in light of the approaching holiday…
So what’s better, real or artificial? The answer would seem to be obvious. A foregone conclusion? You buy an artificial tree and you have it for a number of years and in the meantime you’re not condoning the senseless slaughter of millions of precious little carbon sucking conifers every year.
