If the countdown to 2015 will be happening at your home this year, check out the following tips to learn how you can have an eco-friendly night:
Use Reusable Decor and Accessories
Instead of using paper place settings and purchasing party hats that say "2015" on them, make an effort to select items that can be reused time and time again. You might even find that festive hats which simply state "Happy New Year" are nicer than those that specify the year!
Recycle Champagne Bottles
One of the most common beverages sipped at 12:00 AM on January 1 is champagne. That means your home is likely to be filled with different brands that satisfy the tastes of both you and your guests! As you finish out the evening, be sure that all champagne bottles are placed in the proper bin for recycling.
Buy In Bulk and Buy Only Enough
If you're in charge of purchasing food for the night, shop carefully. For example, instead of buying individually packed appetizers, buy your favorite finger foods in bulk! Additionally, be sure to only buy food that will find its way to your guests' stomachs. Although most people buy more to avoid not having enough, the leftovers usually end up in the trash.
On the other hand, if staying home isn't on the agenda for the big night, coordinate with others to carpool to your destination or walk if possible! Taking one car (or no cars) is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint on one of the busiest nights of the year!
