I LOVE Christmas. I love that our house has a month of looking all special and sparkly, I love the excitement of the kids getting an advents calendar surprise each morning, I love watching feelgood Christmas movies, listening to Christmas carols and the fact that Christmas brings families and friends together, I love the amazing food, and I especially love the smiles on my kids’ faces opening presents on Christmas day (ok, so it’s definitely not always this stress free, but you get the point!). There is one thing though that I really don’t like about Christmas – and no it’s not the frantic shopping experiences or my empty bank account – it’s my suddenly-much-larger carbon footprint.
