What's greener ...A real or artificial Christmas tree?

The video discusses the environmental impacts of real versus artificial Christmas trees. It highlights a study by Ellipsos, which suggests that an artificial tree must be used for at least 20 years to match the environmental impact of a real tree. The video also examines the materials used in artificial trees, such as PVC, and their significant environmental impacts due to chlorine consumption and manufacturing processes. Additionally, it addresses the global supply chain, noting that most artificial trees are imported from China, adding to their environmental footprint. The video concludes by advising viewers to invest in a high-quality artificial tree if they choose that route, to minimize environmental impact over time.
