Halloween Fun with Freddie!
Freshwater Freddie here…I am busy getting ready for Halloween! I have been thinking about several different ways to enjoy this holiday but still protect the environment.
This is what I have so far…
· Use candlelight or battery-powered lights at your Halloween parties and on Halloween night. This will save electricity and set an eerie tone too!
· Consider giving out reusable or organic items to trick-or-treaters, such as small books or toys, rather than candy. Candy wrappers produce tons of waste!
· When trick or treating, don’t use disposable bags. Try using a pillowcase. Not only will they not tear through, they won’t produce as much waste.
· Walk or ride your bike while trick or treating.
· Reuse Halloween decorations each year, instead of throwing them away.
I am going to keep thinking of ways I can be environmentally-friendly this Halloween, and I encourage you to do the same!
