While we learned how to have a green Halloween last month, it’s not shocking that the greens are redefining the meaning of Thanksgiving by asking us to give thanks - to sustainability. From beeswax candles and organic turkeys to recycled paper products and buying carbon credits to offset your airline’s emissions, all the ideas that will cost you a fortune this Thanksgiving are all here, except one. The article suggests you lower your thermostat by two degrees and use the fireplace to save money. I’m sure that will offset the outrageously expensive recycled and organic items that are this year’s must-buys for a sustainable Thanksgiving.
