  • Dispose of organic decorations appropriately, as improper disposal can contribute to methane emissions.
  • Consider alternatives such as composting or recycling for Christmas trees and holiday plants instead of sending them to landfills.
  • Reusing items like gift bags and decorations helps reduce waste; each pound of gift wrap contributes to significant carbon emissions.
  • Creating new dishes from leftover food can also combat the problem of food waste, a major source of methane.
