Just imagine…

Just imagine…

If every family reused just two feet of holiday ribbon, the 38,000 miles of ribbon saved could tie a bow around the entire planet.

If every American family wrapped just 3 presents in re-used materials, it would save enough paper to cover 45,000 football fields.

The 2.65 billion Christmas cards sold each year in the U.S. could fill a football field 10 stories high. If we each sent one card less, we’d save 50,000 cubic yards of paper. Consider sending an electronic card.
