GO FAUX!
The benefits of artificial Christmas tree's for mankind and the environment.

In a world currently ran into a pit of conformity and chaos from the effects of Global Warming and Climate Change, it is up to us as human beings to do our part for the environment and mother nature herself by eliminating the need to cut down live Christmas trees for this one time in the year.

I have personally only ever had a live Christmas tree once, and it turned out to be more trouble than the price it was worth. It rotted before Christmas was even over, the pines would fall off and become a hazard to both the young children that visited and our household pets, and the cleaning itself was more hassle than anyone in a sane mind would want to do on a Christmas Holiday. Picture that it is Christmas day, and the first thing you have to do in the morning is wake up before your kids so you can clean up the living room of any dangerous pines before your children get up to open their presents just so they have a place to sit why they breathe in the Christmas fun, all the time you are too tired to acknowledge the fact that it is Christmas and you can not fully get into the Christmas spirit.

Why not settle for a Plastic Christmas tree? They are so much friendlier to both the environment and you yourself. You have no need to clean up after them, they come in all shapes and sizes suitable for any household, and they are easily stored away for the following year. You have no need to clean up after them and no need to wake up early for this. You can enjoy your Christmas day like it was meant to be enjoyed, as a wholesome family day, the most magical and most wonderful time of the year.

Not only will settling for a plastic tree be healthy for you and the environment, it will also save you money in your wallet to buy that last minute Christmas present! In my 18 year lifetime, we have only ever owned two plastic Christmas trees, and believe me, the first one still looks good enough to last a lifetime. They literally do have a lifetime guarantee, unlike your live trees that when cut will often have a lifetime a LOT less than Christmas time itself.
