    Plastic trees and resource consumption

    Iron, oil and precious metals are used for the production of plastic Christmas trees, and these resources are not renewable and only to a limited extent recyclable. Hence, the resource consumption for plastic tree production is 22 times higher than that for producing natural trees.
