Challenge: Substitute Christmas Tree
Objective:
Each year, America cuts down more than 30 million Christmas trees, used once, then thrown away. Artificial trees are often made with PVC, a harmful chemical. Can you create an equally festive, more environmentally-friendly way to celebrate the holiday season?
Useful Hints:
Research how other countries and cultures celebrate winter holidays. Can you use that as a basis for your invention?
Did You Know:
Americans spend nearly $2 billion on Christmas trees, annually. Imagine your invention was part of that market—think of all the gifts you could buy your family (okay, okay, and a few for yourself).
