Christmas...Kids...Hazardous Lead?
You should be aware that artifical trees contain potentially hazardous amounts of lead, PVCs and other chemicals that may be harmful to both health and the environment.
The average artificial tree:
- uses 68 grams of lead which may lead to health problems
- consumes 30 ELU's (1) of PVCs which have been linked to birth problems, testicular cancer, and when burned, dioxin.
Fortunately, you have a safe, environmentally-friendly choice this year. You can celebrate your holiday traditional by purchasing, using and recycling a naturally-grown Real Christmas Tree.
Real Christmas Trees are made out of 100% biodegradable materials made by nature and grown by North American farmers. Plastic trees are made out of non-bidegradable petrolium by-products in oversea factories.
The safe choice for you and your family this holiday season is a fresh, natural Real Tree.
Aren't your kids and family worth it?
