Hello Friend,
December is well underway, and as you tackle your holiday to-do list, we
wanted to share some simple tips from your Green Party of Canada Team to
have a sustainable, eco-friendly holiday season:
GIVE THE GIFT OF AN EXPERIENCE:
Minimize waste and create lasting memories by gifting experiences. Consider
membership to a local club or museum, skating lessons, language lessons, or
a cooking class.
-------------------------
SUPPORT LOCAL SHOPS AND ARTISANS:
Make a positive impact on your local economy by shifting some of your
holiday shopping to local shops. Gift cards to local restaurants or
handmade goods from local artisans can make thoughtful presents.
-------------------------
PREPARE A SUSTAINABLY SOURCED FEAST:
Lower the carbon footprint of your festive meals by sourcing ingredients
locally and exploring plant-based or vegetarian options. Support local
farmers and reduce transportation emissions, all while preparing delicious
food!
-------------------------
THRIFT YOUR HOLIDAY ATTIRE AND GIFTS:
Save money and extend the life cycle of gently-used goods by exploring
thrift shops for timeless and unique holiday attire and gifts.
-------------------------
GET A SUSTAINABLY SOURCED TREE:
If you opt for a real tree, consider sourcing it from a local, sustainable
tree farm. Some communities offer 'living trees' that you can rent and
return after the holidays, allowing others to enjoy them in the future.
-------------------------
REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE:
Embrace the timeless mantra of reducing, reusing, and recycling. Opt for
reusable wrapping materials, minimize food waste, and responsibly recycle
packaging. These small actions make a significant difference.
BONUS TIP:
WANT TO GIVE A GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING? [1] Consider donating to the
Green Party. It's a thoughtful gesture that supports environmental advocacy
and drives meaningful change, making it a truly unique and lasting gift
that extends far beyond the holiday season.
In these challenging times, we also understand that many of you may be
feeling the economic pinch. We want to offer you an alternative way to
support the Green Party of Canada-by BECOMING A MONTHLY DONOR [2]. Every
monthly contribution we can count on, no matter the size, has a big impact
on our ability to drive positive change. By committing to a small, regular
donation, you are part of a powerful collective force for environmental and
social progress.
Thanks for your support, and for joining us in embracing sustainable
holiday options.
