Christmas Day is over and a lot of people are starting to take down their trees. Even if you still have your tree up and don’t plan on disposing of it anytime soon, you should think about where you’ll be taking your tree when the season’s over.
All over the United States, cities are offering to recycle Christmas trees. Here are some links you should check out.
