I want a RENTAL tree 🌲 here in the USA!! 🇺🇸

[@richardpauly1635]

We do that also in the usa too in oregon

[@robyndavis3043]

Brilliant!-wish they did this here in the states

[@SuzanaMantovaniCerqueira]

The BEST idea !

[@milhouse14]

This is brilliant. This should be mandatory while purchasing trees should be illegal.

More sustainably built fake trees need to be made available, as there would not be enough real trees for those that wanted one.

Xmas trees take 7 years to mature and each year tree farmers replant 1.5X the harvest EVERY YEAR.

Use plastic tree

[@gamingtonight1526]

We have used the same fake tree (quite realistic and cost a lot!) for over 18 years, we think that is more sustainable.
