Make this disposable holiday a little greener

Green is autumn’s debut “event-of-the-season”. With the parties, treats and creative costumes, the festivities of Halloween are something many Americans look forward to for months. For some, however, the only thing scary about this holiday is the amount of waste it creates. According to the National Retail Federation Americans will spend about $4.75 Billion on Halloween this year. That’s almost $5 Billion of disposable items – decorations, costumes, trick-or-treat bags, candy-wrappers – that will end up in a landfill. This Halloween, why not ditch the disposables, conjure up your creativity and add a little green to this typically black-and-orange holiday?
