Listen "Christmas Trees and the Ecology"
Episode Synopsis
Soon a Nova Scotia grown spruce tree will be arriving in Boston for the holidays. It's an annual tradition to thank them for their support following the Halifax explosion. And it elicited a few people to write letters to the editor over the practice. Some people are worried about the environmental impact of cutting down 60-year old trees as part of the tradition. For that perspective, I reached out to the Ecology Action Centre (EAC). For 50 years, the EAC has been working to build a healthier and more sustainable world. And Joanna Bull is their Community Engagement Manager and she runs their own annual Christmas Tree fundraising event.
