After Christmas they don't just end up in the landfill. They are often recycled into mulch. The material used for mulch needs to come from somewhere... So better for the tree to bring some joy in someone's home temporarily rather than just growing and being cut down.

I would find it morally better if mulch could be made from leaves collected in the fall, but knowing about this recycling helps think more positively about the cutting.

Thank you.
