Today's edition. "Site" He will answer that question and tell you, tree-breakSo she doesn't go to waste.
I think we should start with what we think. Christmas-trees a waste of natural resources. The tree grows for many years, and it is cut down to please the human eye for a couple of weeks. But we're not here to judge, since you've decided you want a live tree, it's your business.
Sooner or later, the time will come when you have to get rid of the tree. Well, we don't want her to be wasted here. Unfortunately, most Christmas trees after the holidays end up in the trash, and then in the landfill. But there are other ways.
As you can see, there are ways to give the tree a second life. You can also initially buy not a cut tree, but a tree in a pot. Then, after the holidays, it can be planted in the ground. In general, if you set a goal, you can do everything competently and with the benefit of nature.
And remember that we all owe nature, so we must protect it, protect it, take care of it. Artificial Christmas trees can also please the eye and create a festive atmosphere, and let live ones grow in the forest, where they belong.

- Recycle
In Europe, this is a long-established process: there are special reception points where you can bring a Christmas tree. After that, the tree is sent for further processing. In Germany, they are used for heating purposes. In Switzerland and Finland, Christmas trees go to furniture factories, and in England they are made from compost. We are not so rosy, but reception points are already beginning to appear. Find out, maybe in your city you can take the tree for recycling. Nope? Then there are other options.
- Use for yourself
The tree is a storehouse of useful properties. From needles you can make many useful decoctions and tinctures. For example, you can prepare a decoction of branches, and then take a bath with it. Collect all the needles and thin twigs from spruce, pour water in a ratio of 1: 8 and insist the day.

Then put it on the fire and boil it to reduce the volume by half. You can take a bath now. Just add 100 ml of concentrate to the water and lie in the bathroom for 15 minutes. Then rinse and go to bed. Such a bath perfectly removes toxins from the body, strengthens the immune system and nervous system, relieves fatigue and treats diseased joints.
There are many recipes for tinctures from spruce needles, the main thing is to find the right one. But that's just for recycling the needles themselves. The gun will only come in handy if you burn wood.

Another option is to take the tree to the zoo. For several years zoos around the world accept Christmas trees to please pets. According to the zoo, there is no special need for conifers, but this brings diversity to the lives of animals. 171517
Animals with interest study trees, they become entertainment for them, and some enjoy the bark and buds of pine trees. Coniferous legs contain many useful substances. Ungulates are happy to eat thorns. Deer, bison, camels - they will not abandon the tree.
Most of the trees that enter the zoo are processed. They are shredded and made bedding for animals. So not a single twig is wasted.
Zoo workers ask people to get rid of all tinsel and jewelry before bringing the tree to the zoo. It is very important that animals are not injured.
