It is just part of the Christmas holiday to have a Christmas tree. It just is! You know it’s true! After all, it is under the Christmas tree that those wonderfully wrapped presents sit under not to mention the glittery, aesthetically pleasing beauty that it possesses! <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Due to the recession (economic decline) that the the U.S. had, Christmas trees were no longer being grown there as it was too expensive and not financially worth it. As a result, many American consumers have been buying their trees from Canada. But did you know it takes roughly EIGHT years to grow a tree? A tree that is only used for roughly a month? Ummm.. can you say environment killer…!!!<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
On the other hand though, some say that artificial trees are much more damaging for the environment. When artificial trees are dumped into landfills, they stay there whereas real trees can be ‘treecycled’ which is much more beneficial to the environment. <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
So what are your thoughts on Christmas trees? Should people have the choice, like we do now, to buy real trees, or should consumers only be allowed to buy artificial trees? <\/div>\n

You may perform a quick research on this question by typing out the pros and cons of Christmas trees. Try to incorporate your own ideas too! <\/div>\n

Remember: You need to explain your opinion. Then, give details that back up your opinion (your evidence). It should be roughly 10-20 sentences in length \ud83d\ude42 <\/div>\n
