    Plastic is pretty much never going to be a greener alternative than a renewable, biodegradable plant. Especially if they can be grown nearby.

      Now that I can’t believe. At some point it’s better to let the trees keep growing and make a plastic tree. We’re not talking about paper for newspaper or something consumable, were talking about an item we want to keep for a lifetime. I can’t believe that cutting down, setting up, and throwing out 70 real trees over a lifetime is better than one plastic.
