Here are some tips from Jinxey the Christmas Cat to have very green Christmas: A roasting fireplace will actually suck warm air out of your house. Use newer led's on your christmas lights. They'll save lots of energy. Caulk your windows. That'll keep the drafts out. Buy local gifts. There are plenty of starving jewelry makers and artists in your neighborhood. Get toys without batteries. They're more fun anyway. Re-gift presents you don't want. Somebody else may like them better. Make your own cards and presents. They show more thought and cost less. Use a fake tree. The tree you save will continue to make oxygen for future generations. Give gifts made out of natural materials instead of plastic. Take the train instead of flying. You'll relax more, walk around, and don't need to be strip-searched. When you travel, stay at a green hotel.
